RN to BSN Program

Achieve your goals, enhance your career options, and deliver better care with a BSN earned on your own terms.

As a licensed RN, you can get your Bachelor of Science in Nursing in as little as 12 months and, if you choose, completely online.

Our RN to BSN program is designed specifically to meet the needs of working registered nurses, allowing you to balance work, family and school-related responsibilities. You can transfer 85 credits from your associate degree or diploma credentials and your current RN license. If you have completed coursework in Statistics and Ethics you may be able to transfer an additional six credits, allowing you to quickly earn your BSN.

Earning a BSN is proven to advance the careers, salaries, and potential of working nurses--and a degree from Waynesburg University is recognized as one of the best baccalaureate nursing programs in the state of Pennsylvania for excellence and value.
