RN-BSN Post-Licensure Program

Dear Prospective RN to BSN Student:

Congratulations on your decision to consider returning to school for a Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing (BSN). The Institute of Medicine's Future of Nursing Report strongly encourages all nurses to obtain their BSN (Doi: 10.17226/21838). The California State University, Bakersfield's (CSUB) RN to BSN Program is designed to build on your Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) and challenge you to explore and grow in many new ways.

Like you, I am a proud CSUB alumnus. I am an ADN graduate from Bakersfield College. Higher education opens doors to opportunities not only in nursing but also enlarges a broader vision to different non-nursing fields. The Department of Nursing at CSUB work closely with faculties, nursing leaders, ADN programs, and community members to craft a solid curriculum for the RN to BSN students.  

You may access the RN to BSN Program information above using the drop-down menus on the side of this page. Please contact the Program Advisor for transfer and advising information.

Thank you for your interest in our program.   We look forward to working with you in attaining your career goals.
