Why a graduate Nursing education?
Professional nurses who complete advanced degrees positively impact the well-being of individuals, families and communities. Nurses with advanced degrees possess the knowledge to instill in others the importance of lifelong learning as the way to greater well-being. • RN to BSN/MSN: This program is structured to give RNs who have previously earned an associate in nursing degree or a nursing diploma the opportunity to meet undergraduate requirements without completing a BSN degree. The RN to BSN/MSN student fulfills undergraduate requirements in progress to admission for graduate in nursing studies (MSN). This curriculum, combining undergraduate and graduate nursing studies, also gives RNs the option to earn a BSN degree, or earn a BSN degree and a MSN degree*. • Through innovative restructuring, Registered Nurses prepared with an associate degree in nursing or a nursing diploma may complete a MSN degree.
