R.N. to M.S.
This graduate program is for R.N.s whose highest nursing credential is an associate degree in nursing. Using a cohort model, this program offers associate degree-prepared nurses a creative opportunity to efficiently earn a master’s degree and thereby increase their options for career mobility. All students in the R.N. to M.S. program must complete specific undergraduate general education courses and bridge courses before entry into the CNL master’s curriculum. A master of science in nursing degree is awarded upon completion of the program; a bachelor of science in nursing (B.S.N.) is not granted. The R.N. to M.S. program courses are offered when a cohort of interested students is formed. For more information about this curricular option, see the School of Nursing website or call the School of Nursing at (503) 943-7211.
