“The SMSU RN to BSN Program does not have you take a set amount of credits each semester. This flexible scheduling was perfect for me as it allowed me to vary the amount of credits I took each semester. I would have struggled without that flexibility as I am a non-traditional student who is also a wife, mother of four, and worked full time while completing my degree. This program is designed to fit into your life, whether you want to be a full-time or part-time student.”

Log into D2L Brightspace

D2L Brightspace is the course management system used by all Minnesota State Schools. All web based classes are delivered to students through D2L Brightspace. Many on-campus courses also use D2L Brightspace for delivery of your course syllabus, lectures, discussion, chat and quizzes.

  • Log-in  SMSU D2L Brightspace by using your StarID and StarID password
     
  • Typically, D2L Brightspace information about courses can be viewed one week before the course start date. This will give you more time to take a look at the course and determine if this course fits your summer schedule. Online courses typically require at least as much (if not more) time as face to face courses. Daily attention to the course is recommended.
  • If you decide you are not going to stay in the course it your responsibility drop it before the 2nd day of the course start date. If you fail to drop the course you will be charged full tuition and fees.
