The curriculum offers additional opportunity for practical experience while providing the graduate with the requirements and expertise necessary to enter a master’s program of study in the field of nursing. The highly affordable tuition and challenging curriculum provides additional opportunities for practical experience and personal attention, making the Coastal Georgia RN-BSN program an easy choice for working professionals.
The RN to BSN program is 100% online. It requires three in-person clinical rotations at location of choice. Students choose to complete the program in 3 or 6 semesters, including summers. Course faculty are highly-skilled in online instruction and adult learner needs.
This program is designed to further registered nurses’ knowledge regarding disease processes, evidence-based practice, professionalism, ethics, informatics, community health, and leadership.
Nurses will be prepared to further their career, or to continue their education in graduate studies.
Many of the clinical programs offered by the College of Coastal Georgia School of Nursing and Health Sciences require a clinical internship or practicum experience to fulfill degree requirements. Pursuant to the College’s legal agreements, participants in clinical experiences are required to abide by the workplace rules of the clinical site. Sometimes, these rules include vaccinations requirements. As always, the SONHS will continue to make every effort to place students at clinical sites. However, please be aware that we may be unable to locate a site to accept unvaccinated students, which may cause a delay or inability to progress and complete the program of study.
