Regis University RN to MS in Nursing Bridge Program
Regis University has partnered with The College Network to offer a unique degree program that allows you to earn your Master of Science in Nursing using a convenient blended learning format. Our blended learning format consists of independent study and online learning making it possible to continue your education without altering your lifestyle or sacrificing your career. Using The College Network's Comprehensive Learning Modules to pass proficiency exams (CLEP®, Excelsior College® Examination, DSST®) in hundreds of subjects you can earn credit for your general education and elective courses (up to 62 credits) at your convenience. The College Network has also developed Comprehensive Learning Modules (CLMs) for two of the graduate nursing courses required in the program. Authored by Regis University nursing faculty, the CLMs are self-contained, independent study guides. In this partnership option, students complete the general education requirements using TCN's Comprehensive Learning Modules and six hours of graduate level credit using TCN's CLMs. The remaining courses are completed online through Regis University.
