There has never been more demand for qualified and skilled healthcare professionals—especially nurses. But, as many working nurses are finding out, they can only go as far as their education will take them. Many RNs with nursing diplomas and associate degrees in nursing—though excellent in providing patient care—are being passed by for promotion or career-defining opportunities as more hospitals and healthcare systems work toward magnet status.
Is it time you took your education to the next level with an accredited bachelor’s degree in nursing? Then it’s time for you to pursue your RN to BSN degree at Bryant & Stratton College—online.
Our RN to BSN online program gives Nursing degree graduates who have obtained their RN licensure the chance to continue their pursuit of a bachelor’s degree in nursing. From healthcare policy to nursing leadership, curriculum for this flexible RN to BSN online program helps registered nurses develop a stronger foundation in skills beyond the strict clinical side of the nursing profession. Students will develop vital research and leadership skills in order to gain opportunities for career advancement in hospitals, clinics, and healthcare systems.
Admission to the RN to BSN degree program is based on the evaluation of transcripts and individual advisement. Students are required to complete the requirements of the Nursing Generalist degree program, as most nursing, biology, and liberal arts courses transfer into the RN to BSN degree program. Plus you have the option to take classes online, earning your degree on your schedule and at your own pace.
