Why Choose a Bachelor of Science in Nursing at PPSC?

The RN to BSN Program offers an online completion program for licensed registered nurses seeking to obtain their bachelor’s degree. PPSC is also now offering a dual enrollment option, allowing current Associate Degree in Nursing students to take Bachelor degree courses. The BSN is required by employers like the military, federal government, public health, schools, many local hospitals, and out of state nursing jobs. It makes you more employable in Colorado and elsewhere, and it's necessary for advancing your career in leadership and management or continuing your education.
