Professional Growth

An associate degree in nursing (the pathway to becoming a registered nurse) provides foundational knowledge and skills, but many leading nursing roles require a minimum of a bachelor’s degree. 18JAV’s RN-to-BSN program provides opportunities for increased earning potential, flexibility, autonomy and an expanded ability to impact patients and the profession.

Why RN-to-BSN? | Why Our Program?

  • All RN-to-BSN nursing courses are offered fully online, providing working nurses with the flexibility to balance career and education. (Students requiring general education courses may enroll in traditional in-person courses or may transfer approved credits from another institution.)
  • You’ll apply as a transfer student to receive credit for previous nursing courses, and you’ll apply your work experiences, as well (no traditional clinical rotations are required).
  • You may enroll for the Fall Semester or Spring Semester and complete the program in as little as one year.
  • Our focuses on: evidence-based practice, nursing leadership, healthcare finance, person-centered care, community and public health, contemporary nursing issues, innovation and quality improvement. View a Sample Plan of Study.
