Nursing: RN-BSN

Degrees Offered

Our accredited online RN to BSN Program at Highlands University is designed for registered nurses to earn a bachelor’s degree. This program prepares graduates for high-level nursing positions in patient care and management as well as in community health. Our graduates become leaders in the nursing profession. Nearly half pursue advanced degrees in nursing (i.e. nurse practitioner, nursing education, and nurse midwife).

NMHU has strong partnerships with associate-degree nursing programs like the one at Luna Community College, which makes it much easier for students to transition into our BSN Program.

Earning your BSN is your path to a variety of exciting nursing jobs with potential for higher pay.
