or you may purchase your book from eCampus @ For ecampus click here http://www.ecampus.com/SchoolFront.asp?a=289 .  The College works with eCampus to sell textbooks to our students online. 


You are free to purchase your books from whom ever you wish.


Tips to receive your books faster:



  • Choose to ship your books ASAP, this way if one book is out of stock your entire order will not be delayed, only the book or books on back order will be delayed. Your order will ship in pieces.
  • Ship your order UPS select or UPS 2nd day. There is not much of a cost difference and you will receive a tracking order number.
  • We do not recommend standard delivery as it can take up to 2 weeks and there is no way of tracking the package.
  • We recommend that you spend the few extra dollars to get your books sooner and safer.

Apartments

Junior and senior nursing students spend much of their time on the BRCN campus and have the option of living in the hospital apartments across the street from the College. Each apartment is furnished, spacious, and designed for 2-4 students. Apartments include kitchen, living and sleeping areas, and a private bath. Current apartment rent is listed on the Tuition page. Students supply their own food or eat in the hospital cafeteria at a reduced price. A laundry room with coin operated machines is located on the first floor.
