RN to BSN Accelerated Track Plan
The
RN-to-BSN program enables registered nurses to make the transition to
professional nursing with a baccalaureate degree in three consecutive
semesters. The associate degree nurse can complete their bachelor’s degree
starting in the summer and finishing their nursing courses by the next
spring. Prerequisite courses must be completed prior to admission to this
track. Courses are delivered in a hybrid fashion allowing the student to
take part of the course through the web, and part of the course through
on-site instruction. Clinical components of this track allow the student to
essentially complete their clinical experiences in their hometown.
Required RN-BSN Accelerated Courses Through Articulation (Nursing
Courses completed in three semesters one day per week).
