Recommendations for RN to BSN concurrent enrollment programs

Specializes in Pediatrics.

I am currently enrolled and starting an ADN program this Fall 2022. I am looking for any recommendations for RN to BSN concurrent enrollment programs or any advice within the topic! So far I have looked a little at GCU, ASU, CSUF, and Capella, but other recommendations are appreciated. ? 

Preferably mostly to all online would be best. I would like to get an idea on people's experiences within the program/getting into a program.

Hello, 

Here is what I have learned for FREE direct billing NOT tuition reimbursement for the concurrent enrollment program RN-BSN (hope I am not too late) -- please review the companies that pay for their employees:

Starbucks will pay 100% for the Arizona State University (ASU) Online CEP RN-BSN program (direct bill / not tuition reimbursement) both fulltime/parttime are eligible -- the catch this must be your 1st bachelors degree to utilize this benefit 

Amazon will pay 100% for the ASU Online CEP RN-BSN program (direct bill / not tuition reimbursement) both fulltime/parttime are eligible  -- the catch this must be your 1st bachelors degree to utilize this benefit 

Uber (must complete 2000 trips first) will pay 100% for the ASU Online CEP RN-BSN program (direct bill / not tuition reimbursement) -- the catch this must be your 1st bachelors degree to utilize this benefit

CVS (the colleges bill CVS directly -- $750 per quarter, which equates to $3000/yr.) will pay for Capella University / Strayer University / Colorado Tech University RN-BSN.  Capella Uni / Colorado Tech has a CEP.  If work 30 hours or more per week, eligible date of hire.  If work 29 hours or less per week, you will not be eligible for this benefit until after 90 days.  

Here is a list of employees that will pay for Bachelor degrees posted on Reddit September 2023:

Look into Boise State University. My friend went there and had an amazing time. Great faculty, and very flexible course scheduling, and 100%online. I plan to apply over the Summer:

I too am looking for more information on this! I’m starting an ADN program this fall as well. I’d love to graduate with my BSN around the same time!

Let me know if you hear/learn anything! I'm still looking into different options, but havent really found a "top" choice yet.

I spoke to ASU the other day - seems like a good option but I think I will just wait until I’m finished with RN and hopefully get a job that will help with BSN tuition. ASU would cost around 20k
