BSN Nursing

Health care continues to evolve, and the training of its workforce must evolve with it. If you want to begin or advance your career in nursing, we offer one of three pathways to earn an accredited BSN degree, depending on your educational and professional background:

• The Traditional BSN is a four-year bachelor’s degree program in Stephenville for students who are not licensed as nurses. The pre-licensure program qualifies you to apply for licensure as a registered nurse and to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN®).
• The RN to BSN degree program is for registered nurses who have an associate degree and want to earn a bachelor’s degree. Starting courses every eight weeks, this flexible post-licensure program is online with experiential learning and practicum components, so you can enroll full-time or part-time and be done in 10 to 15 months.
• The LVN to BSN program is for licensed vocational nurses who have completed a vocational nursing program and want to earn a bachelor’s degree. One of only seven programs of its kind at a public university in Texas, most LVN programs are only one-year non-degree programs, our post-licensure bachelor’s degree program for LVNs helps you earn a BSN in about 18 months. You will also qualify to apply for licensure as a registered nurse and take the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN®). This program is based out of our location in Waco, Texas.
