RN to BSN

The RN to BSN program is designed to enhance students’ nursing practice while building upon their current skills and abilities. Students learn to implement globally focused and culturally appropriate strategies for health promotion and disease prevention across the life span as well as develop the ability to use decision-making and leadership skills. The RN-BSN program prepares students for expanding professional roles in the health care system. 
Students enrolling full-time in the classroom option can complete the nursing courses in two semesters.
