I didn't see it anywhere on the Health Care page.

I just graduated from their ADN program in Dec 07 and when we asked our DON during the forum we had after our 3-day mandatory review classes, she said it will take a couple more years before they establish the BSN program.

This is great news! I wonder if this is for the RN to BSN or a regular BSN?

well when i went to 1st semester orientation last fall the faculty were saying it was going to be an RN-BSN program, and that you have to have a certain amount of work hours (i think a years worth?) before applying.

maybe someone else has more concise info.:)

This is true.

I'm a first term RN student, and the BSN is an RN to BSN bridge with priority given to FCCJ grads. You have to have 2000 hours (one year of FT work) before getting in.
