Conditional Acceptance — RN-BSN

Start your Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree before you graduate. Conditional acceptance to the RN-BSN program at Thomas Edison State University (TESU) allows you to take BSN classes while you wait for your NCLEX-RN results. After completing the NCLEX-RN and submitting your final transcripts, you will be fully admitted into our program.

Our RN-BSN program is open to:

  • Students in an RN diploma program in nursing
  • Graduates of an RN diploma program in nursing
  • Students in an accredited college or university in the United States earning their associate degree in nursing
  • Graduates of an accredited college or university in the United States with an associate degree in nursing
  • Once conditionally admitted, you have one year from the admission date to obtain your RN licensure.
  • Failure to do so will result in removal from the program.
