Is Kaplan University, or any other online program good for Nutrition Science?

[DudeX1]

I'd like to become a registered Dietitian or Nutritionist and would like to earn my degree online. The ADA's site doesn't really explain if they accept online programs or not. Does anyone know if you can get registered with the ADA through getting a bachelor's degree online, at say Kaplan University? Thanks.

See the below link on eatright.org

It is a complete list of all the accredited Didactic programs in Dietetics. I have a B.S. Dietetics from Indiana University and a M.S. Dietetics from Eastern Illinois University.

Basically if Kaplan is not on the list I wouldn't go there b/c you want to make sure any school you attend is accredited by ADA.

COLORADO
University of Northern Colorado Greeley
KANSAS
Kansas State University Manhattan

I would highly suggest attending class if at all possible. Look for programs that offer evening courses as you can often work these around your job.

Good luck
