Bachelor of Science in Nursing

Designed for Professional Learners

The University of Olivet RN-BSN program serves professional nurses returning to college in the completion of a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree. These individuals have completed their clinical nursing courses within an associate degree program and have earned their RN licensure prior to matriculating at The University of Olivet. Students who passed all full-time first year ADN courses with a grade of “C” or better and who submit a letter of recommendation are eligible to apply to enroll in any courses noted in the academic catalog as “Open to approved ADN students.” These students are eligible to apply for regular admission to the RN-BSN Program after successful completion of the NCLEX (National Council Licensure Examination).

Accreditation

The baccalaureate degree program in nursing at The University of Olivet is accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education and approved by the Higher Learning Commission.

The University of Olivet has been approved by Michigan to participate in the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements. NC-SARA is a voluntary, regional approach to state oversight of postsecondary distance education. At this time, California is not a SARA approved state; consequently, we will not be accepting students that live in California until further notice or approval is granted.
