Programa de Colocación Avanzada RN-BSN

RNs with an Associate Degree or nursing diploma from an accredited nursing school may apply for the RN to BSN Advanced Placement Program. RNs complete the same general education and supportive courses as students enrolled in the pre-licensure BSN program but have a specified program for completing theory and clinical nursing course requirements. The RN will receive credit for 33 semester hours to be held in escrow until successful completion of the program. All clinical experiences are preceptors at approved facilities. RNs may progress through the program using a 12-month accelerated option to a 24-month extended option. RN applicants may be required to provide a demonstration of nursing skills competency through written and/or performance-based testing as defined by the Arkansas Nursing Education Progression Model.

All programs offered in the School of Nursing are approved by the Arkansas State Board of Nursing. Upon graduation, the student is qualified to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) to become a registered nurse.
