This article is being created in an effort to focus on the Bachelor of Science in Nursing degrees moving forward in the future. It's information is important to address the questions surrounding decisions on which nursing education path new nursing students should consider and why. It points out that the Institute of Medicine (IOM, 2011) recommended that by 2020, 80 percent of RNs hold bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) degree. It also acknowledges proposed legislation around nursing degrees in the future, specifically, Eighteen states are considering adoption of proposed “BSN-in-10” legislation in order to increase the number of BSN-prepared nurses. This legislation would require newly licensed ssociate degree or diploma nurses to earn a BSN within 10 years of initial licensure (Nursing Collaborative 2015 [Nursing], 2011). Noting that many RN-to-BSN programs offer distance learning options, the 10-year deadline is thought to be appropriate (DHHS, 2010).

All of the information provided in this wikipedia page is drafted from the Current Bachelor of Science in Nursing page along with the Nurse Education wikipedia page and Articles sourced from CINAHL complete making them credible sources.

 * Hi Brandy, please update Bachelor of Science in Nursing instead. I have merged the unique content you wrote.  It may be a bit excessive in its focus on IOM, and perhaps there should be other perspectives too. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:12, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
