UW Bothell Nursing Programs

UW Bothell's RN-to-BSN and MN programs, part of the #1 rated University of Washington School of Nursing, prepare graduates to be health care leaders.

The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (RN to BSN) program offers nurses with an RN both full- and part-time study options for earning your BSN, with Nursing core classes held one day a week.  You can pursue your degree on the Bothell campus, as part of the North Counties program in Mount Vernon, or in Everett.

The Master of Nursing program prepares professional nurses for leadership roles in health care practice, education, administration, and research settings. Students with a BSN or an RN and Bachelor's degree in another discipline are admitted each fall and attend classes part-time on Fridays at the Bothell campus for 2 to 3 years. The curriculum allows you to explore nursing theory, research, leadership, diversity, social justice, ethics, and program planning and evaluation.
