As well as affordable tuition, Value College notes that ODU Online RN to BSN students have

the full support of the College of Health Sciences’ School of Nursing, with courses taught by the same quality faculty and mentorship available through both synchronous and asynchronous instruction.... With a well-developed support system that younger online programs can’t offer, ODU Online makes sure it provides students with an excellent education that translates to a top college value.

Value College highlights both academic excellence and affordability in ODUOnline MSN programs, describing our School of Nursing faculty as "a highly qualified body of scholars and practitioners" involved in innovative research. Just like our RN to BSN program, these faculty members teach both on-campus and online, "giving online students access to the same top-flight minds and mentorship that residential students receive."

Value College used three metrics in the RN to BSN rankings: Payscale’s 2015 College ROI Report by Healthcare Career criteria, U.S. News & World Report’s national rankings, and credit per hour tuition rate (for the actual Online BSN program) as reported by each individual college. For the MSN rankings, they considered average early-career salary from Payscale.com, national ranking (U.S. News & World Report), and real tuition cost (from college website).
