Budget from three facts. The rate is per credit inside the published band, so your program's slot, and the RN to BSN's separate program fee, come from ASU Online's tuition estimator and your advisor's written quote, not from any third-party page including this one. The structure means pace saves calendar, never fees: a 36-credit RN to BSN costs its credits at any speed, and the roughly 14-month published rhythm is a scheduling promise, not a discount. And the two leaks are the network's usual pair, denominated at R1 rates: a repurchased course under nursing's C floor, and transferable standing paid for instead of claimed, the ADN's lower-division credit being the single largest sum most Edson students ever move.
The band, in practical terms
| Fact | What it means for planning |
|---|---|
| $561 to $1,343 per credit, by program | A three-credit course spans roughly $1,700 to $4,000 depending on your slot; know yours before mapping sessions |
| Nursing program fee | Rides alongside the RN to BSN's rate; the estimator itemizes it |
| Per-credit at every pace | One class at a time and two at a time cost the same tuition; only the calendar moves |
| Public R1 aid machinery | Federal aid, employer benefits, and hospital tuition programs all run their normal channels here |
The leaks, priced at R1 rates
- The repurchased course: a nursing course below the C floor repays its full per-credit sticker and stalls the sequence a session; first-attempt clearance through the desk costs a fraction
- The unclaimed transfer: the ADN's standing, prior coursework, and bridge credits convert to sessions deleted, per the admissions manual
- Drift: per-credit billing never charges for slow, but the BSN differential and the MS-level roles arrive exactly as late as you do
Where support fits this math
At the band's nursing-relevant stretch, one prevented repurchase outpays a session of writing support outright, and the gentler undergraduate arithmetic still buys the same two things every Edson client actually wants: evenings back and the finish date held. Both columns run in public on the comparison page, and the free first sample keeps the decision an evidence decision.
