Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.S.N.) Programs in the School of Nursing at NMSU
The BSN degree plan includes three options to accommodate either the beginning nursing student or the returning registered nurse who wishes to complete a BSN. Additionally, there is the Roadrunner Option, which is an accelerated program designed for students with an undergraduate degree in another field who wish to become registered nurses and earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree.
NMSU's Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree program is approved by the New Mexico Board of Nursing and accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education. Approval by the New Mexico Board of Nursing is required for graduates to be eligible for the National Council Licensing Examination for licensure as a Registered Nurse. Accreditation by the CCNE assures students and employers that the programs have met national education standards. Graduation from a CCNE-accredited program can facilitate a student's acceptance into advanced educational and certification programs, graduate schools, or the armed forces.
For more information about the BSN program, please contact the School of Nursing at 575-646-3812.
