Welcome to Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing!

Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing (BSMCON) has been providing excellent nursing education since 1961. In that time, we have graduated more than 3,300 students well-prepared for a successful career in nursing. I am proud to lead a College with such a rich tradition of student-centered education and achievement.

At BSMCON, we take a unique approach to nursing education. We keep our classes small to ensure personal attention in the classroom, in our Clinical Simulation Center and during clinical experiences. The College is part of Bon Secours Richmond Health System, making it possible for our students to deliver patient care in award-winning, Magnet recognized hospitals. Students also have the opportunity to serve in our global outreach programs, which occur abroad, statewide and in our local Richmond community.

Our students have the added benefit of learning from accomplished faculty members with years of education and nursing experience. College staff members work together to provide a smooth process from admissions and registration to financial aid and student services. All members of the BSMCON team are focused on providing a world-class educational experience for each student.

Whether you are interested in the pre-licensure Bachelor of Science in Nursing or the online post-licensure RN to BSN program, I am certain you will find Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing to exceed your educational needs.
