Experienced and resilient RNs are highly sought-after members of health care teams and hospital systems. Employers in hospital and community settings seek out nurses who can apply critical thinking and scientific reasoning, and who bring communication skills, cultural competence, and creativity into the workplace.
Our RN to BS program currently has four unique options:
- A hybrid program on site at Mercer Community College, West Windsor, NJ

- A fully online program
- A Camden program which allows students to take classes at Mercer or Atlantic Cape or in our online program. Currently we have no face to face nursing classes on the Camden campus for the RN to BS program.
