RN to BSN Online Program Completion Options
We offer three RN to BSN Online program completion options:
- Full-time for two-semesters
- Part-time for three semesters
- Part-time for five-semesters
All core BSN courses are offered every seven weeks. Any core nursing course or courses may be taken during any seven-week session, as long as program requirements are met. (The only exception is the 14-week, full semester capstone course.)
The three schemas outlined below offer a suggested order for taking courses.
Note the following program requirements:
- Statistics must be taken prior to NBSN 4062.
- NBSN 4061 & NBSN 4078 must be completed by the end of the first semester.
- In the five-semester option, students may elect to take NBSN 4082 (statistics) the first semester and NBSN 4078 the first seven weeks of the second semester.
- NBSN 4068 Capstone is a semester-long course. Students must complete NBSN 4061, NBSN 4062, and NBSN 4078 before taking the capstone course.
No general education courses are indicated in the schemas. If these courses remain unfinished when you begin your BSN coursework, it could add to the time it takes to complete your degree.
