TAMUC RN-to-BSN Competency Based
#9
(02-17-2024, 12:27 PM)Airamb Wrote: As I look at the core requirements, the "foundational coursework" is common to all ASN programs. However, instead of 4 credits in Chemistry, I have 3, or 4 credits in Microbiology, I have 3. It's possible the general education requirements do not streamline into every RN to BSN program making the program much longer than 30 credits!

https://coursecatalog.tamuc.edu/undergra...rn-to-bsn/

Even ACE states, "Students are required to complete ninety (90) semester credits in addition to the credits listed in ACE course list for satisfactory completion of the program. Inclusive of the ninety (90) semester credits, a required thirty* (30) semester credits of general education must align with the Indiana College Core as defined in the College’s General Education Requirements policy." https://ace.edu/degree-programs/bachelor.../rn-to-bsn

My point is, that these "30-credit RN to BSN" programs may require retaking coursework depending on school and state requirements which means more time and cost. It would be nice to simply find a "30-credit" RN to BSN program that accepts the ASN with 90 credits and does not require a repeat of general education.

I see what you're saying about potentially having to do things over. I think only way to know for sure is for OP to speak with someone(s) at the school. I do know for sure that WGU is definitely doable and is generous about transferring a significant portion of the degree. Hopefully OP reports back and lets us know if this school is a viable option in terms of credit transfer.
