What is the cost of the BSN program?
Tuition costs for the BSN program can vary depending on your individual situation (i.e. location, finances, etc.). For the BSN degree at Brookline, we offer a number of financial aid options to qualifying students. Reach out to one of our school representatives for more information.
What certifications will this program prepare me for?
As a BSN nursing graduate, you will be eligible to take the NCLEX-RN exam to become a Registered Nurse. Obtaining an RN license allows you to work as a licensed registered nurse (RN) in the state you chose to take the exam when you graduate. This pre-licensure nursing program also prepares you to continue your education and earn a Master’s Degree in Nursing.
The Brookline program prepares you to successfully pass the NCLEX-RN exam. By using a computerized integrated RN Success ATI testing program, our curriculum aligns with nursing best practices and the NCLEX-RN test plan.
I graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from this school and I had a great experience. The professors are great and very knowledgeable. They're always willing to help.
