OHIO, Bucks County Community College agreement to provide educational opportunities for BCCC Nursing grads
91探花 and Bucks County Community College, in Newtown, Pa., have entered into a collaborative agreement that provides students who earn an associate degree in nursing at Bucks with a guaranteed academic pathway to seamlessly transfer into a parallel bachelor鈥檚 degree program at 91探花 that can be completed entirely online.
The 91探花 School of Nursing RN to BSN program is designed especially for registered nurses (RNs) who want to further their education and advance their career by earning a bachelor鈥檚 degree in nursing (BSN).
