Frequently Asked Questions

What is an RN?

Registered Nurses (RNs) are healthcare professionals who care for patients, communicate with doctors, and administer medications.

What’s the difference between an RN and a BSN?

An RN is a license, and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) is a degree. To become a licensed RN, you must enroll in a pre-licensure nursing program. Some programs lead to an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) and some to a BSN degree. You can earn an ADN degree in about two years, while a BSN degree may require three to four years of study. These additional years of study will provide you the knowledge and experience to advance your nursing career.

How much do Registered Nurses make?

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the average salary for Registered Nurses is about $80,000 per year. Registered nurses who earn salaries in the top 10th percentile can make up to $116,000 or more.

Please note that wage data provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) or other third-party sources may not be an accurate reflection of all areas of the country, may not account for the employees’ years of experience, and may not reflect the wages or outlook of entry-level employees, such as graduates of our program. (accessed on 11/15/2021)

How long is the BSN program?

At Brookline College, nursing students can earn an accelerated BSN degree in as little as 32 months.

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. For complete certification information, please CLICK HERE

Classes are highly interactive, challenging and most professors are highly qualified with MSN PHD or doctoral degrees with years of educational experience. They prepare you for your new career. Their NCLEX-RN passing rates are top notch in the 90th percentile.
