RN to BSN Programs & Accreditation
There are a lot of RN to BSN programs to pick from out there, and I had a hard time figuring out the way to go. I was really glad I took some time and investigated accreditation. The school I first thought about going said they were accredited, but it turns out they were not fully accredited. By that I mean, they were not regionally accredited. It sounds strange, I know, but the best accreditation you can receive is regional accreditation. The importance about that is that your course credits are accepted at other accredited schools. So if you decide to transfer to another school, or if you decide to further your education beyond a BSN, you are going to need to have your credits accepted by another school. Think about how much time and energy you’d waste and how discouraging it’d be a lot of the classes you thought you passed were actually deemed to be insufficient credit. You’d have to go back to school again.
