RN online?

It is 50% of nurses of have less than a BSN, not 80%. I edited my post to correct that. See the Institute of Medicine report The Future of Nursing. The Future of Nursing: Focus on Education - Institute of Medicine

UT Arlington
ACNP 48-51 hours College of Nursing: Acute Care NP Degree Plan
ACPNP 52-54 hours College of Nursing: Acute Care Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Degree Plan
AGPCNP 50 hours College of Nursing: ANP-GNP Primary Care NP Degree Plan
FNP 51-54 hours College of Nursing: Family Nurse Practitioner Degree Plan
NNP 50-53 hours College of Nursing: Neonatal Nurse Practitioner Degree Plan
PNP 48-51 hours College of Nursing: Primary Care Pediatric Nurse Practitioner Degree Plan
PMHNP 48-51 hours College of Nursing: Family Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Degree Plan

The degree plans are five semesters, not three, not one year. These programs are for BSN degree holders. An individualized certificate program is for people who already have an MSN in something else. The length of a post-master's certificate depends on what courses were previously completed. If the three required patho, pharm, and health assessment courses were already completed, then a post-MSN certificate could be obtained in as little as 12 months.

Advanced patho, pharm, and health assessment are absolutely required for NP programs. By taking these concurrently with clinical courses, an NP program can be done in a year. Most schools treat these courses as prerequisites to clinical practicums, which is the way it should be done.

Criterion III.D: The curriculum plan evidences appropriate course sequencing.
Elaboration:
The curriculum plan should document the course sequencing and prerequisites designed to promote development of competencies. Clinical experiences should be supported by preceding or concurrent didactic content. A student should complete the basic graduate coursework and APRN core coursework (advanced pharmacology, advanced health assessment, and advanced physiology/pathophysiology) prior to or concurrent with commencing clinical course work.

Some things should not be rushed. Nursing is definitely one of those things. 12 month BSN programs have been proven to be failures. 12 month NP programs are not a good idea. Having advanced patho and pharm knowledge before doing NP clinicals makes sense. Pathophysiology is the foundation upon which nursing, particularly advanced practice nursing, is built upon.

Other than UT Arlington because I know their APRN programs aren't online, are any of those other programs online? I wanted to know if the OP had any 1-year, online, NP programs in mind because enrolling in one is one of his plans.

I already said there were 5 left in 2009. I also quoted an article that said 92% of today's PA programs are masters programs. Obviously, certificate and associates programs in PA are extremely rare in the U.S. I saw one that is not accepting students right now. My prediction is that they'll all be gone soon way before the 2021 deadline.
