BSNC-ASN2BSN - Bachelor of Science in Nursing - RN to BSN

The RN-BSN program is designed for nurses who have earned an Associate of Science in Nursing degree and wish to return to school for their BSN. Given the advances in healthcare, increasingly complex patients, expansion of community health, and intricate technologies, many nurses feel the need for additional education. The program is designed to further nurses’ knowledge regarding disease processes, evidence-based practice, professionalism, ethics, informatics, community health, and leadership. The program prepares nurses to further their career or continue their education in graduate studies.

The program courses are hosted fully online; however, the last course of the program, Capstone, requires 45 in-person clinical hours. These hours can be completed at a variety of locations around the region.

College of Coastal Georgia’s RN-BSN Program is part of the University System of Georgia RN-BSN Collaborative. The collaborative hosts five (5) RN-BSN courses each session during fall and spring semester, and once during the summer semester.

Students who are interested in the RN to BSN program must meet the college admissions requirements listed in the Admissions section of this catalog. Interested applicants may view program and admission information through the nursing website. For additional questions, please contact the Department of Nursing office at (912) 279-5860. Thirty (30) credits of upper-level courses must be completed at CCGA.
