Do you have experience in the field? If so, you should check out the accelerated "Direct Registered Nurse (RN) to Masters of Science in Nursing (MSN)" (what they call it) program from American Sentinel University: americansentinel.edu/online-degree/online-masters-degree/rn-ms-nursing.php

This program allows you to earn your Master of Science degree in Nursing without even having a baccalaureate degree beforehand (you do need at least an Associates Degree though). Sounds like you've got it covered with your undergraduate degree, as long as you've got the required nursing experience!

Good luck to you!

Hey, this program is one of the best that I've seen. I've been thinking of doing this, only you need to agree that you will not be working while you're doing the course, since it is so intensive. There is a 3 week mandatory in person experience as well ad prerequisite courses.
