From the Dean

Dear Future Student:

I am very proud of the online RN to BSN degree program, which allows busy registered nurses the opportunity to earn a BSN degree. Offering our courses online provides an opportunity for working registered nurses to continue their education without interrupting family and work obligations. Many JU students have successfully completed JU’s online RN to BSN program since 2001 and have continued their education in graduate nursing programs. While no campus attendance is required, our online students receive the same quality education and degree as a campus-based student.

Jacksonville University’s faculty has experience teaching in the online classroom, and most faculty members are full-time professors on the JU campus. Because they are experts in teaching the online adult student, JU faculty members effectively use online office hours, message boards and email to help maintain close contact with students and to promote success.

The Jacksonville RN to BSN degree program is committed to graduating nurses who are self-assured, competent professionals who can practice in the global community. We prepare nurses to make compassionate, sound decisions regarding care to individuals, families and communities in a culturally diverse society. I invite you to contact a University Alliance program representative toll-free at 866-786-6276 to learn more about how the Jacksonville University CCNE-accredited program can be a part of your professional future.

Sincerely,

Judith E. Forker, PhD, RN, CNS-BC

Jacksonville University School of Nursing
