Paying for the RN-BSN Program
Upper Iowa University is offering the RN-BSN program at a discounted tuition rate of $328.00/credit hour for Nursing prefix courses. We do not add extra fees to the tuition such as a technology fee or lab fee. In addition, there is no application fee. We will ask for a $12.00 check at admission to pay for the background check required by the Iowa Board of Nursing.
As a result of the tuition discount, RN-BSN students will not be eligible for institutional financial aid, including transfer scholarships. However, there are several state programs for nurses returning to school. Our financial aid advisors will be happy to work with you in exploring financial aid opportunities. To begin, fill out the FAFSA application.
