The instructors for the RN to BSN program were well-seas一个d nurses that embedded invaluable personal 经验 into their lectures which really enriched my learning 经验. They also treated the RN to BSN 学生s with a notable amount of respect that made me feel welcomed and almost like a young colleague. They were very understanding that most of us are working nurses and really made the program feel doable.
