RN to BSN students are required to hold an encumbered licensure by 2nd semester of nursing courses and must remain current during the entire program. The nursing department will verify each student’s RN license at the start of the program and each semester after that for their entire program. If students do not hold a valid unencumbered license, they will be removed from the program.
Requirements are subject to change.
*Students are required to complete all university related verifications.
Orientation to the RN to BSN program at Minnesota State University Moorhead will now be offered online through D2L Brightspace. This orientation will be asynchronous and done at your own pace and time that is convenient for you. You will receive access to the D2L Brightspace RN-BSN Orientation course at least one month prior to the start of the semester. The mandatory orientation course must be completed prior to the start of the semester.
We will be offering a one hour open Zoom session to answer questions you still have after completing the orientation course. This Zoom session will be on August 20, 2024, from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. This will be a live meeting, but in a come and go fashion. You are not required to attend this live session, it is just to get questions answered after completing the online orientation. https://minnstate.zoom.us/j/94576816617 Passcode: RN-BSN
