The online portion of your education represents
a unique interactive experience. This is not independent
or self-study, nor a solitary effort. Similar to a traditional
class, you will work with a group of students guided by
a faculty member. There are assignments, tests, projects and
discussions. But because it’s online,
you enjoy “anytime, anywhere” convenience within
an assigned time frame. There is personalized attention
at every step, with advisement and virtual faculty office
hours.
Requirements & Advisement
Each program has specific prerequisites.
OU makes it easy to transfer credits and complete necessary
requirements.
And with academic counselors and experienced advisors, you
have support throughout the admission
process — and your nursing education experience.

computer requirements
and need high-speed Internet connection. There are computer
packages, discounts and financial assistance programs available.
