RN to BSN Transfer Pathways
Lakes Region Community College and the UNH College of Professional Studies (UNH CPS) have partnered to provide the RN to SNH pathway for Nursing graduates. This program provides an opportunity for LRCC graduates to enroll in UNH CPS online to continue their nursing education at the same cost per credit as their community college courses.
Eligibility
Individuals with a Nursing degree from LRCC and reside in New Hampshire are eligible to enroll. Applicants can be recent grads, or graduated years ago to apply for this pathway.
How does the program work?
In the associate degree program at LRCC, graduates will have completed a program of study that prepares them to take the NCLEX. Successful completion of the associate degree and passing the NCLEX qualifies an individual to work as an RN.
The online RN to BS in Nursing program is designed for the convenience of working Registered Nurses. Courses are offered fully online through UNH CPS, with the exception of the final Capstone course, which includes a field-based practicum project.
The RN to BS in Nursing program is a total of 120 credits, including the associate degree component, and can be completed at your pace. Financial aid is available to eligible students at UNH CPS.
Next Steps
Additional information can be located at https://cps.unh.edu/online/ccsnh-nursing-partnership. Contact one of our Student Support Counselors to get assistance with applying to the program.
Final acceptance into the RN to BSN pathway is dependent upon successful completion of the Nursing program, passing the NCLEX, and being a nurse in good standing.
