The Belhaven University RN to BSN Prep online program is designed to provide practicing registered nurses holding an associate degree or diploma in nursing, the opportunity to complete any pre-requisites courses that may be lacking to enter into the RN to BSN program. This program is fully online.
In order to pass a nursing course, the student must have a TEST average AND overall course average of 73 or greater. The test average includes all tests, quizzes and exams in the course. Additional course assignments are not included in the test average but can supplement the course grade if the test average is above 73. Thus, students with less than a 73 on their test average will receive the test average grade for the course grade.
