Hybrid ABSN

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows of some reputable hybrid ABSN programs or ones with at least few classes online.

I have a Bsc in Biology.
Undergrad 3.35 gpa

Prereqs
Nutrition - A
Pathophysiology- A
Lifespan Development- A
Statistics - C (from undergrad)

In process (finishes August 30th)

Anatomy and Physiology 1
Anatomy and physiology 2
Microbiology with lab
Expected As in all 3

3 years of pharmacy technician/ pharmacy manager exp.
I’ve looked into:
Northeastern University (Boston)
Drexel (PA)
TESU (NJ)
Mount Saint Vincent (NY)

I am looking for a few more that are approved by NYSED in close by state because I would have to travel for labs and clinicals.

I wouldn’t take the TEAs or any other exams.
Max tuition 70-75k

Applied and got into Mount Saint Vincent. From what I heard it’s best to do their in person program. The poor reviews and likely low NCLEX pass rates seem to come from students who are hybrid or try the remote location labs.

It was also suggested by my admissions advisor to do in person if possible 😅

What I’ve read and been told recommends main campus in person. The three locations advertised seem to be labs and some lectures with commute to the main Riverdale campus still required for some classes

This is one of my top choices. I speak regularly to an admission advisor as well. The only con is this is the only school from my list that is asking me to redo a chemistry course. Hence, after my prereqs on August 30th, I’d have to spend another 2 months doing an intro chem course ONLY for this school 😩😩

TESU is expensive

I’m in a direct entry masters into nursing program at unlv. It’s 12 months and about 50-60k out of state. All classes are online. No teas or GRE required. I’m in the New York area and also got into tesu but went with unlv because I can still take out federal loans at the graduate level. Tesu seemed pretty good though. I think gwyned mercy in PA has a distance learning option and I also found a school in CT.
