Pathways into the B.S. Degree at OHSU for OCNE transition students
Pathways are available depending on the course delivery options (on campus or online) or by full time or part time status. Two transition pathways are available. Please see each option below to see which pathway will be right for you.

- Finish the B.S. nursing courses in 4 quarters and have the summer off between the 2nd and third year.
