Entering RN to BSN granted courses in Colleague

In the RN to BSN program there is a list of courses the RN student will be granted once the student completes the first course in the program at Valparaiso University. The College of Nursing and Healthcare Professions(CONHP) will then complete an e-form and submit it to the Registrar’s office via Perceptive. The list of courses a RN student will receive are:

NUR 203 NUR 210 IPE 213 NUR 325

NUR 341 NUR 351 NUR 354 NUR 356

NUR 425 NUR 458 NUR 480

These courses are subject to change. Please consult CONHP on current courses.

Once the “CONHP Application for Credit” has been approved by the dean in Perceptive then these courses can be applied to the student record via TSUM in Colleague.
