RN’s seeking a Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Concord University will complete a 30-hour online program designed to provide licensed registered nurses a pathway to earn a BSN degree. The coursework for this pathway is 100% online, since these individuals will be working full-time in healthcare settings.

Regional Accreditation

Concord University’s Nursing Program has been regionally accredited in the state of West Virginia by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), an institutional accreditation agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education.

National Accreditation

We recognize the demand for nurses across the U.S., so our program is also pursuing national accreditation by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE). National accreditation does not affect licensure, but allows our graduates to go across state lines if they want to further their education.

Registered nurses interested in completing our online BSN program must:

  1. Have earned an Associate’s Degree in Nursing,
  2. Have a valid RN license,
  3. Have a minimum 2.5 GPA upon entry, and maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA in our Nursing curriculum
  4. Submit a formal application to the BSN program (in addition to applying to the University)
