“I am so pleased to welcome Ashworth’s displaced nursing students to the Walden nursing family,” says Dr. Andrea Lindell, vice provost for Walden University’s College of Health Sciences, which houses the School of Nursing. “Whether Ashworth students are transferring into Walden’s RN-BSN, Accelerate Into Master’s (AIM) RN-BSN, or RN-MSN programs, our goal is to do everything we can to ease the transition so that students have choices that enable them to complete their BSN degree and advance their nursing career.”
Walden University, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, was one of the very first institutions of higher education to offer online nursing degrees. Today, Walden’s School of Nursing is recognized for meeting rigorous standards for academic quality and integrity and is No. 1 in Master of Science in Nursing graduates in the U.S.* Walden’s BSN program is regionally accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) and the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (www.ccneaccreditation.org).
The program is designed to prepare registered nurses with the additional skills in leadership, case management and health promotion that can be applied on the job. Students benefit from practical coursework developed by leading healthcare professionals. All courses are taught by faculty with the highest academic credentials and real-world nursing expertise.
Ashworth students enrolling for the February 24, 2020 start date receive 50% tuition reduction assistance for the life of their program.** (This tuition reduction applies towards the course-based programs, RN-BSN, RN-BSN-AIM or RN-MSN.)
