Flexible Online Programs + Next-Level Nursing Skills. You’ll Get Both at DCN.
Are you an experienced registered nurse ready to advance in your role? Denver College of Nursing (DCN) provides two online degree programs designed to help busy working nurses develop next-level leadership skills: the Registered Nurse to Bachelor of Science in Nursing (RN to BSN) program and the Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program.
At DCN, we recognize that working nurses require flexible programs that fit into their already active schedules. That’s why our online RN to BSN and MSN programs are delivered entirely online and paced at just two to three courses per term, allowing you to achieve your educational goals while maintaining your momentum at work. Our online programs also include breaks between terms to support a manageable work-school-life balance.

Nursing-Centric Online Learning
DCN’s online learning environment helps students become confident, competent, and resilient nurse leaders ready to change healthcare for the better. We do this by emphasizing applicable skills in real-world scenarios within our RN to BSN program and focusing on relevant research and analytical skills within our MSN program.
DCN students, faculty, and staff come together to create welcoming, positive, and engaging online classes that facilitate learning. You’ll experience support through individualized guidance from a dedicated student services director, direct interactions with the faculty who teach your courses, and connections within the community of fellow nurses pursuing goals that align with your own.
