Top RN-to-BSN programs in New York

One of the fastest routes to becoming a registered nurse (RN) is an associate’s degree in nursing (ADN) program. This popular program typically takes 2-3 years to complete. After several years in the field, however, many ADN-holders find that they are ready to advance to a higher position. Many of these positions will require a bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) degree. Fortunately, ADNs have the opportunity to earn their BSN in less time than it takes prelicensure students to complete the program.

RN-to-BSN programs allow licensed professional nurses to earn a BSN in as few as three semesters. Actual completion time depends on the number of accepted credit hours and whether you attend full- or part-time. Many of these programs feature flexible day, evening, and/or weekend schedules, and some are even available entirely online.

While the compensation and employment outlook for RNs is generally excellent, nurses that hold a BSN degree can frequently realize higher earnings and greater employment stability. Expected employment growth for RNs nationwide is 19% for the 2012-2022 decade, with a median annual salary of $65,470. New York-based RNs earn a median salary of $74,370 per year, one of the highest RN salaries in the country. Nurses in management, research, administration, and other high-level positions typically earn six figures. For example, New York’s nurse managers (medical and health services managers) average $118,020 per year.
