They also offer MSN and RN to MSN programs. The RN to BSN program is offered entirely online. Registered nurses can enjoy the convenience of pursuing their BSN while maintaining a part-time or full-time job. The traditional four-year BSN program includes a combination of liberal arts and sciences courses and core nursing courses. Instead of requiring students to complete their liberal arts background during their first two years, the nursing courses are offered throughout the four years.
