Do programs like the Entry-Level MSN have a history of preparing successful advanced practice nurses?
MSN programs for students with non-nursing Bachelor’s degrees were first introduced in the 1970’s. The number of programs of this type increased on the east coast throughout the 1990s, and now these programs are available across the country. Research shows that graduates of entry-level programs become successful advanced practice nurses, and hospitals have proven eager to hire them due to their high level of academic accomplishments.
