MSN B.L.E.N.D. Program (for the RN with a Non-Nursing Bachelor's Degree)
If you are an RN who is in possession of a non-Nursing Bachelor's degree, you may still be admitted to Loyola's MSN program without first obtaining a BSN degree.
To be admitted to the MSN program, you must complete Loyola's MSN B.L.E.N.D. (Bridge to Leadership Education for Nurses at a Distance) program, which is now offered
fully online.
This 6-credit bridge program covers important themes including Leadership, Health Promotion, Community, and Professional Development.
