There are countless reasons why one might become a registered nurse (RN), but here\u2019s a major one: financial security. Modern RNs make a median salary of $86,070<\/a> per year. Not to mention, becoming an RN means becoming a valuable community asset and challenging yourself along the way. And if you already have a bachelor\u2019s degree, you don\u2019t have to start from square one.<\/p>\n

Those who\u2019ve already completed a bachelor\u2019s in a non-nursing field can become a registered nurse quickly, through an accelerated BSN (ABSN) training program. This can strengthen your professional credentials and open doors to advanced clinical practices, leadership roles, and diverse career opportunities in the field of nursing. The ABSN curriculum is created to fill gaps in your knowledge while preparing you to pass the NCLEX-RN exam as a final step toward RN licensure (a requirement for nurses to practice).<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s look at how to turn your prior education into a career that serves others and the community. Take the following steps to become a registered nurse with a bachelor\u2019s degree:<\/p>\n

1. Research and preparation<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re serious about beginning a nursing career, start by familiarizing yourself with your program options and their requirements. ABSN programs are designed for those with previous college credit, offering a fast track to completing a BSN, passing the NCLEX-RN, and becoming a registered nurse.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, make sure you meet the prerequisites for the program you\u2019re applying to. An ABSN program will require a bachelor\u2019s degree (in any field) from an accredited college or university. However, other bachelor\u2019s degree pathways might have different requirements. For example, if you\u2019re looking at the RN to BSN path, you\u2019ll need to have previously completed an associate degree in Nursing and\/or already hold an RN license. There are many pathways to getting a bachelor\u2019s degree in Nursing, no matter your background!<\/p>\n

2. Application process<\/h3>\n

When working toward your bachelor\u2019s degree in Nursing, you\u2019ll need to get organized. Submit required paperwork\u2014official transcripts from prior colleges and universities, recommendations, and perhaps a personal essay, to name a few. Getting your ducks in a row during the application process will confirm that you\u2019re pursuing the best route to a Bachelor of Science in Nursing.<\/p>\n

Additionally, many of your previous credits will transfer into an ABSN program, so research thoroughly. At Goodwin, nearly 50% of our students<\/a> bring previous college credit when transferring. If you have already spent time in school, don\u2019t pick a program that makes you start from scratch!<\/p>\n

3. Financial planning<\/h3>\n

Understanding the financial aspects of your education is critical. Reviewing the fixed tuition model of the program’s total cost is helpful to proactively plan your finances. Explore government funding options, like FAFSA, as well as state-level financial aid options, including scholarships via the CT Health Horizons Initiative<\/a>, which can offer up to $ 10,000 to eligible students.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t forget to research within your school\u2019s financial aid office<\/a> as well. There are grants for veterans, public servants, and teachers available in many cases, certainly no shortage of creative ways to support your education costs and lower your financial burden.<\/p>\n

4. Program structure and curriculum<\/h3>\n

As mentioned, there are some common pathways to completing a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Most commonly, aspiring nurses know about the traditional, four-year BSN programs that you can pursue directly after high school. However, this is not the only option available.<\/p>\n

If you already have a bachelor\u2019s degree, you can pursue an accelerated BSN (ABSN) program. This is designed for those who wish to become a nurse, without a large investment in school. You must have a bachelor\u2019s degree in a non-nursing field for entry, and you can be awarded up to 38 credits for this prior education. Because of this, the ABSN can be completed in as little as 16 months on a full-time basis (versus the traditional four years). Students complete 60 more core nursing courses. Near graduation, students take the NCLEX exam to complete RN licensure.<\/p>\n

Another flexible option is the RN to BSN route, designed for those who\u2019ve already completed their associate degree and passed the NCLEX-RN. The RN to BSN is designed with flexibility in mind to wrap up those credits and get your BSN degree, which will position you to advance in your nursing career. The RN to BSN can be completed part-time in just 12 months, allowing you to maintain your career while going back to school. The curriculum covers advanced clinical practices, leadership, and community health, equipping you with the skills needed to excel in diverse healthcare settings.<\/p>\n

The RN to BSN program is available entirely online, which is perfect for working professionals, with the convenience of studying from anywhere. You can advance your career smoothly and competently without compromising your current commitments.<\/p>\n

5. Support and resources<\/h3>\n

Next, university support services\u2014tutoring, career counseling, veteran support, and more\u2014are available in the best BSN programs. These resources amplify your learning experience, along with opportunities to participate with peers and faculty through online forums and university events. You can build valuable professional connections that will benefit you throughout your career.<\/p>\n

Make sure you fully utilize your student’s access<\/a> to this wealth of support and resources. You could even attend advising sessions with an academic advisor from the nursing department to plan your course schedule and stay on track.<\/p>\n

6. Completion and graduation<\/h3>\n

Of course, meeting all coursework and clinical requirements is the first crucial step toward graduation\u2014showcasing your newfound theoretical knowledge and practical experience needed to excel in various healthcare settings.<\/p>\n

Finally, you\u2019ll need to pass the NCLEX-RN to become a fully licensed professional, and \u2014presto! You\u2019re ready to enter the workforce.<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s nothing left to do except your commencement ceremony\u2014a time-honored traditional occasion to recognize your diligence and hard work in front of your teachers, peers, family, and friends. Make sure you don\u2019t skip this celebratory step! Receiving your BSN degree is not just a time of formal recognition but a gateway to numerous professional opportunities<\/a> and career advancement in nursing.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve worked hard. You deserve to celebrate!<\/p>\n

A Bachelor\u2019s Degree in Nursing: Three Pathways<\/h2>\n

Learn how to become a registered nurse with a bachelor\u2019s degree, through three program options:<\/p>\n

Traditional BSN Program<\/h3>\n

A traditional BSN is designed for high school graduates and individuals with no prior nursing experience. This program takes four years, including all non-nursing, nursing, and clinical hours. Students will be ready to take the NCLEX-RN for their license upon program culmination.<\/p>\n

Accelerated BSN Program<\/h3>\n

Even in a non-science discipline, earning a bachelor’s degree is still an exciting first step toward a healthcare career. If you already have a bachelor\u2019s degree but want to shift into the healthcare field, entering an accelerated BSN (ABSN) program<\/a> is one efficient way to get the skills you need. The accelerated program takes about 16 months to complete, followed by passing the NCLEX-RN exam. Plus, an ABSN degree in Connecticut has led to diverse career opportunities and specializations.<\/p>\n

RN-to-BSN Program<\/h3>\n

If you wish to become an RN quickly, you may consider earning an associate degree in Nursing\u2014a minimum requirement that will make you eligible for the NCLEX-RN licensing examination. The associate degree takes roughly two years of nursing school or less to complete and allows you to get into the workforce fast.<\/p>\n

What does this have to do with a bachelor\u2019s in Nursing, you ask? Well, once you have your associate degree, RN licensure, and some experience, you can always go back to school for your BSN! Many registered nurses prefer to get work experience immediately rather than sit through more classes\u2014and then later return to school at any time with an RN-to-BSN Program<\/a>. This type of program is for active registered nurses seeking to advance their education with a bachelor\u2019s degree in Nursing. At Goodwin, the RN to BSN program can be completed in just 12 months part-time, and entirely online for added flexibility.<\/p>\n

Chart your course\u2014a BSN that\u2019s right for you!<\/h2>\n
