RN to BSN programs, also known as baccalaureate completion programs or 2 + 2 programs, are designed for licensed registered nurses who wish to return to school to earn a BS in nursing.
Curriculum requirements vary depending upon the school; however, the Connecticut articulation model makes it easier to transfer credits so RNs aren't faced with repeating courses they have already taken in their basic nursing program.
Classes are designed for adult learners who are currently working in nursing, and often offered in the late afternoon, evenings, and on weekends. Many programs offer online courses as well. Both full-time and part-time options are available. Courses at the baccalaureate level provide nurses with more in-depth study of nursing practice and expand nurses' knowledge of research, community health, management and leadership.
These programs help nurses build on their entry-level knowledge to prepare them for leadership and management roles and graduate-level nursing education.
