    CaliforniaRNnow replied to CaliforniaRNnow's topic in Texas Nursing

    CaliforniaRNnow replied to RoxyDi's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yes, yes you can. As long as you're a licensed RN, you can get your BSN degree online. In fact, that's why a lot of people are doing the RN-BSN transition program.......... because no one's hiring...
