    Don’t do it……….a waste of time……….you need to go to a credited school to support your degree……….University o f Phoenix is a waste of time and money……

    No, I haven’t with a nursing but I did graduate with an MBA and now I’m working on my doctorate online with them. Speak with a counselor and they will answer all your questions. Don’t take the word of others regarding accreditation’s, check things out for yourself. The University of Phoenix in my opinion is a good school but again everyone have their own opinion.

    Good luck with school.

    Do NOT throw your money away to a for-profit school like UoP.

    If you want to be a good nurse go to a regular, locally based community college. Tuition will probably be 1/3-1/2 the cost, and you’ll receive more support as a student. Also, many employers still frown upon the UoP’s online format for intial licensure of RNs. Going back for an online BSN completion program or a MSN program is different, as the classroom component isn’t as important since you are already licensed.

    Good luck.
