Top RN-to-BSN programs in New Jersey

While registered nurses (RNs) may practice with an associate’s degree or hospital diploma, nurses who hold a bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) degree often enjoy an advantage in the labor market. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that demand for nurses with BSN degrees will grow almost 20 percent in the next two decades. This reflects increasing employer demand for nurses with broad educational and clinical experience.

RN-to-BSN programs help existing (non-BSN) nurses attain baccalaureate education in nursing. Most programs enable candidates to graduate in two years; many offer flexible programs to accommodate the schedules of working nurses. RN-to-BSN graduates can parlay their degree into career advancement opportunities, greater role autonomy, and a deeper understanding of the nursing profession and procedures.
