The RN to BS program was designed to increase baccalaureate-prepared registered nurses in practice. This program is for working RNs with a diploma or associate's degree. Students must take at least 30 credits from Curry College to graduate with a BS degree from Curry College.
The following courses are considered prerequisites for the RN to BS track. Except for schools with articulation agreements that specify otherwise, students must complete each of these courses or their equivalency, with at least a C+.
* Courses that must be completed before NSG 3132: Population Health in the Community
** Courses that must be taken prior to NSG 3042: Evidence for Nursing Practice for the RN Student
RN-BS Program Curriculum Plan Courses are offered in 8-week online and hybrid formats. Additional course work may be needed to reach the 120 credits for graduation, with up to 90 transfer credits accepted. 2000 level courses are to be completed before 3000 level courses. Any exceptions to the sequence of courses must be reviewed and approved by the RN-BS Coordinator.
