Programs
Chamberlain College of Nursing offers undergraduate programs enabling students to earn either an Associate Degree in Nursing (available in Columbus, Ohio only) or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree (available at all campus locations). The BSN degree program does not require any prior experience and allows students to complete their degree in as few as three years, instead of the typical four years with summers off.
Chamberlain's Second Degree BSN Option is an accelerated program of study available to adults who have already earned a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited college or university. The Second Degree BSN uses the same curriculum as the three-year BSN, and allows adults to apply credits from an existing bachelor’s degree so they may earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree in as few as 13 months.
Chamberlain also offers a RN to BSN online degree completion program for registered nurses. This online program allows registered nurses to earn a BSN degree in as few as 3 semesters. The program offers the flexibility of online learning with no on-site clinical requirements.

Famous quotes containing the word programs:
“Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
“Short of a wholesale reform of college athletics—a complete breakdown of the whole system that is now focused on money and power—the women’s programs are just as doomed as the men’s are to move further and further away from the academic mission of their colleges.... We have to decide if that’s the kind of success for women’s sports that we want.”
—Christine H. B. Grant, U.S. university athletic director. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A42 (May 12, 1993)
“Government ... thought [it] could transform the country through massive national programs, but often the programs did not work. Too often they only made things worse. In our rush to accomplish great deeds quickly, we trampled on sound principles of restraint and endangered the rights of individuals.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
