About This School

Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing is a private nonprofit institution located in Richmond, Virginia with approximately 591 undergraduate students enrolled. Typical graduates earn $57,500 within 10 years of enrollment.

The Bon Secours Memorial College of Nursing (BSMCON) is a private college located in Richmond, Virginia that offers a baccalaureate degree in nursing. The college is affiliated with the Catholic-based, nonprofit Bon Secours Health System.

This is a strong option if you're committed to nursing and want a focused, mission-driven program — graduates earn a median of $57,500 within 10 years, and the debt load of roughly $24,000 at graduation is reasonable relative to those earnings. The trade-off is that this is a very small, single-purpose college with just 527 undergraduates, so if you want a traditional college experience or flexibility to explore other majors, look elsewhere. Worth considering if you're a self-directed student who knows nursing is the path and values a Catholic health system affiliation that can open doors to Bon Secours hospital placements.
