Nursing programs at Bryant & Stratton College-Online
According to federal completion records, Bryant & Stratton College-Online awards nursing credentials at the bachelor’s degree in nursing (BSN) level. A recent year’s totals include about 11 bachelor’s-level nursing graduates. A bachelor’s program is the traditional four-year route to RN licensure and the usual starting point for later graduate study; see our ADN vs. BSN guide if you are still deciding on a degree level. That is a relatively small annual graduating class, so ask how many seats open each year.
Cost and student outcomes
Published tuition and fees are about $16,500 a year. The average net price (what students receiving federal aid pay after grants and scholarships) is about $14,100 a year. About 80% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants. Students who finish the bachelor’s level and borrow leave with median federal loan debt of about $35,000. Federal earnings data puts median pay for those bachelor’s-level nursing graduates at roughly $72,400 one year after finishing and $89,300 four years out. These are estimates for graduates with reported earnings, not a promise. Schoolwide, about 26% of first-time, full-time students finish within 150% of normal time and 22% return for a second year.
Applying and licensure
The federal data does not report an overall admission rate for this school, so ask the admissions office how applicants are evaluated. Nursing programs usually add their own steps, such as prerequisite science courses, an entrance exam, a minimum GPA, and a limited number of seats, so contact the nursing department about current requirements. Our guide on how to get into nursing school walks through the typical process. After graduation, the path to a license goes through the New York State Education Department Office of the Professions and the NCLEX exam. Ask the program about its accreditation (ACEN or CCNE) and state approval, and see how it stacks up against other nursing schools in New York.
