Linfield College offers an online RN-to-BSN degree program that is designed for the registered nurse whose schedule demands flexibility. The only portion of the program that is not taken online is the on-site clinical experience; the clinical experience can be taken in the state where the student is licensed as a registered nurse. Students can complete this program between 15 to 20 months on a part-time schedule, and will take courses that include Transition to Professional Nursing, Therapeutic Communication in Health Care, Nursing in Global Society: Stewardship of the Community, and Reflective Practice in a Global Society.
