Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Higher Education Partnerships
  • Student Transition

Background:

  • Facilitating seamless transitions for Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) graduates into Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) programs is a key objective in nursing workforce development.
  • Existing pathways often present challenges for ADN students aiming to advance their education.
  • There is a need for innovative models to support nursing students' educational progression.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe an innovative "early decision" partnership model designed to incentivize ADN students to pursue BSN degrees.
  • To examine how this model facilitates the transition of ADN students to university BSN programs.
  • To explore the impact of the model on student academic success and institutional relationships.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of an "early decision" pathway for ADN students.
  • Establishment of a collaborative relationship between a community college and a university.
  • Focus on supporting student transition and academic achievement.

Main Results:

  • The early decision model creates a structured pathway for students to commit to BSN studies early.
  • The partnership fosters a supportive environment for students transitioning from ADN to BSN programs.
  • The model aims to enhance student retention and success in higher nursing education.

Conclusions:

  • The early decision model offers a viable strategy for incentivizing ADN students to pursue BSN degrees.
  • Strong inter-institutional partnerships are crucial for successful student transitions in nursing education.
  • This collaborative approach supports students in achieving academic success and advancing their nursing careers.
