LPN-to-BSN

Designed for Licensed Practical Nurses or Licensed Vocational Nurses, LPN-to-BSN programs could potentially allow students to earn their BSN degree in four academic semesters, depending on school, program type, and course load.*

Curriculum may differ slightly by school, but most LPN-to-BSN degree programs teach health assessment, health promotion, statistics, and human processes in pathology. Students also might engage in courses focused on Nursing Leadership, Professional Nursing Practice, Nursing Situation Analysis, and more.

Upon successful completion of LPN-to-BSN programs, graduates may apply to sit for the Registered Nurse licensure examination.
