Beware of online schools

I thought that this was a necessary topic for me to write about. There are many online schools that are popping up all over the place. I myself was even considering taking classes from one a few months ago. That was until I found out that some in some States some most schools would not accept the credits that you earned and you can even be denied testing for State boards. These boards would be in the nursing field. They state that they do not recognize these schools. They also want you to do an internship some where.

I had planned to earn my psychology degree online. I found a school that would let me do the entire thing online all the way up to getting my PHD even. Now of course after learning about this facts I will be reconsidering that decision. No one wants to spend money and waste their time studying for a degree that will not be recognized. A way to prevent wasting time or money would be to go to a recognized college with a recognized program that offers online classes, but also has internships.

A great school to consider for doing the nursing program would be Forsyth College. You can do all of the in class room hours online and go to the school to do the internship. I think that this is very reasonable for me to do, since I have all of my pre-requisites all ready done for the nursing program. I will apply for this programme in the fall of 2009. Wish me luck.
