RN to BSN Degrees
Although it is possible to earn RN licensure with an associate-level education (after passing the NCLEX-RN exam), many RNs find it worthwhile to return to college to earn their Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degrees to broaden their knowledge base and increase the career possibilities open to them.
With an RN to BSN program, you will earn credit for your prior education and experience, including the college credits you received while preparing for your RN. You will also have the option of pursuing part-time or even online studies, so as not to interrupt your current work schedule.
The BSN program will allow you to explore, and even to specialize in, different areas of nursing practice that may not have been open to you as an RN. With a BSN you can specialize in emergency care, in psychological nursing, or in a particular specialty such as pediatric nursing. You can even choose several areas of specialization to give you the widest range of career options.
Should you decide you want to move into management, education, or a particular specialty such as nurse anesthetist or nurse midwife, your BSN should allow you to go on and pursue additional nursing at the master's level (the MSN).
