School of Nursing - CSU, Chico
RN-BSN
In addition to basic RN education, CSU, Chico has included RN-BSN education since the School of Nursing began in 1954.
The current RN-BSN pattern accentuates flexibility and convenience for the working nurse, including nurses in distant communities. This has occurred as a result of rapid advances in computer technology and online course capability.
With grant funding from the Health Resources and Services Administration and the Superior California Area Health Education Center, we have been able to use online delivery methods to make the program more flexible and accessible than ever before. Thus, the program can reach the most distant areas of our rural region and meet the needs of nurses who have seven-day-a-week, around-the-clock, work schedules.
Answer the following questions to see if the California State University, Chico RN-BSN program might be right for you:
- Are you a rregistered nurse interested in pursuing a baccalaureate degree in nursing?
- Do you live in a rural area so commuting to campus is difficult?
- Do you want to enhance your career as a health care professional and become a leader in your field?
If you answered yes to any of the questions, you should contact the RN-BSN advisor at California State University, Chico School of Nursing.
