In this study, the entry and progression characteristics of graduate students (nurses) with baccalaureate degrees in fields other than nursing (non-BSN) were compared to characteristics of students whose baccalaureate degrees were in nursing (BSN). Subjects were students enrolled in the Graduate School at the University of Minnesota majoring in Nursing. Analyses showed that BSN and non-BSN students did not differ with respect to the entry or progression measures used. All non-BSN students who have been admitted have been successful in graduate study. The results of this study suggest the feasibility of serving the non-BSN population at the graduate level under certain circumstances.
在本研究中，将拥有护理学以外领域学士学位（非护理学学士）的研究生（护士）的入学和学业进展特征，与拥有护理学学士学位（护理学学士）的学生的特征进行了比较。研究对象是明尼苏达大学研究生院注册的护理学专业学生。分析表明，护理学学士和非护理学学士学生在所用的入学或学业进展衡量标准方面没有差异。所有被录取的非护理学学士学生在研究生学习中都取得了成功。本研究结果表明，在某些情况下，为非护理学学士人群提供研究生层次教育是可行的。
