+ Bachelor of Science
in Nursing—RN/BSN
Degree
track for the registered nurse.
The College of Nursing also offers an opportunity
for graduates of associate degree and diploma
nursing programs to earn a baccalaureate degree
with a major in nursing. The RN student achieves
the same terminal objectives as the basic student.
However, this alternate track for the RN provides
for flexibility and an individualized curriculum
approach for the nurse in practice. This program
is offered online.
Admission
requirements
Criteria for seeking admission to the major
include:
- Minimum
cumulative grade point average of 2.5 overall,
including all transfer work;
- Graduation
from an accredited associate degree or diploma
nursing program; diploma candidates from non-articulating
programs must submit a portfolio;
- Current
unencumbered license to practice as a registered
nurse in the state of Ohio;
- Must
have a C or better in all supportive requirements,
university requirements, and nursing core
courses.
Applications
to the nursing major are available in the nursing
offices on the main and Firelands campuses,
and in the Archbold office. A lab fee is assessed
for all clinical courses.
Graduation
requirements
A minimum of 123 hours is required for graduation,
of which 40 hours must be in upper-division
coursework. In addition, the 30 hours earned
immediately before graduation must be completed
through Bowling Green State University, uninterrupted
by coursework at another university or college.
University
requirements
Each student is required to complete ENG
112 or demonstrate a proficiency in written
expression equivalent to that attained by students
who have completed the course. A penalty is
imposed if ENG 112 is not completed within the
first 60 hours. (See Academic

in equivalent to math, as demonstrated by a
competency examination score above 095 level.
