Yes, online would be cheaper, but nothing beats the experience you will get if you actually go to class on campus.

You cannot become a nurse online.Nursing school involves going to classes, doing skills labs and working in clinical settings to gain hands on experience. A legitimate accredited nursing school requires that you go to classes.No online program would result in a nursing degree. You cannot get a US degree from another country.You would have to go to the US to do it.

The on-line programs initially would be cheaper, however, just like a traditional university, each kind of education whether online or traditional has its costs and benefits. Cost differences: Traditional and Distance Learning: Most three credit-hour courses online run from $700 to $900 - a charge that's roughly comparable to the fees at most mid-range traditional schools. That means that a full online degree, including textbooks and other supplies needed, will probably require an investment of about $7,500 per semester, or about $30,000 total. Certificate programs, even at a fairly high professional level, can cost less because they involve fewer courses. For example, a certificate degree in supervisory skills at Cornell eLearning, a top school, currently costs about $5,000. It requires 11 courses. There are several ways to defray this cost. If you are employed, particularly by a mid to large-sized company, you may be able to get the company to fund some or even all of the cost of online college courses. The federal government, which has traditionally given grants only to on-campus students, has shown more flexibility in recent years about giving financial aid to online students. Don't wait until the last minute before finding out what your credit hours will cost. Many schools charge late application fees, late payment fees and other charges to people who apply just before school starts. You can keep your degree affordable by learning about "hidden charges" like graduation fees and other charges that don't seem to make sense before signing on to your online school. Traditional college tuition, including books, maintenance fees and supplies, can run up to $20,000 each year for a public four-year university. Those looking to attend a private university can expect this cost to increase to around $80,000 per year. The tuition for the same four-year degree in an online college or university will still include maintenance fees, tuition and book fees. However, room and board cost will not be necessary. Room and board at a traditional public four-year college typically costs up to an additional $50,000. For a private university, the costs are more than doubled at over $100,000. This includes transportation costs as well. Good luck
