What kinds of nurses get a BSN?
These kinds of nurses pursue the degree that sets them apart from other RNs, signaling to coworkers and supervisors alike that they are serious about growing in their practice.
If this describes you, and you’re considering a BSN program, Capella University now has two program paths to fit your needs: a standard online path and a new RN-to-BSN FlexPath learning format.
Both programs are designed to address what nurses have said they want—and need—in a BSN program.
Capella values your experience as a nurse. You may be able to apply previous coursework from another institution for up to 75% (approximately 90 semester credits) of Capella’s BSN degree requirements, allowing you to concentrate on building new skills.
Additionally, the RN-to-BSN FlexPath learning format allows you to move faster through materials you already know and spend more time learning what you don’t. If you have already mastered the material, you move on to the next course.
The BSN degree program at Capella features an online curriculum with 24-hour access to courses.
The standard path RN-to-BSN has weekly deliverables, but there are no set class times or lectures to attend. The RN-to-BSN FlexPath learning format is self-paced—you set your own deadlines. Each course gives you the freedom to learn at your speed, taking as little or as much time as you need to master the material.
With both options, you can earn a BSN in as little as 18 months, and even keep working while you’re learning.
