Nursing is a rewarding, challenging profession that’s in high demand—by 2026, the U.S. will need over 438,000 more nurses. The Richard Bland College (RBC) of William & Mary helps students get a high-quality nursing degree through their guaranteed transfer agreements with top four-year colleges.
GSSP + RBC = BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing)
Richard Bland College is partnered with over 40+ universities and colleges in Virginia to guarantee admission to students who successfully complete their associate’s degree through the RBC Global Student Success Program (GSSP).
The GSSP is designed to help international students succeed in American universities. Through the program, international students are able to live and study alongside American students on a welcoming and safe university campus in contemporary, apartment-style residence halls.
