Tallahassee State College BSN students and graduates are now eligible for exclusive benefits toward ACE’s MSN program

INDIANAPOLIS, July 21, 2026 – American College of Education® (ACE) and Tallahassee State College (TSC) have formed an agreement that expands educational opportunities for aspiring nurses and future nursing leaders.

Through the partnership, TSC Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students can concurrently enroll in ACE’s Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program and earn up to six graduate credits while completing their bachelor’s degree. TSC BSN graduates can also transfer three credits toward an ACE MSN. All TSC students are eligible for reduced tuition toward any ACE program.

“Partnering with TSC opens affordable learning pathways for nurses who want to have advanced degrees,” ACE Chief Growth Officer Monica Carson said. “By helping them begin graduate coursework earlier or maximizing the value of their transfer credits, this agreement supports them as they build the advanced skills needed to lead and make a greater impact in patient care.”

Both the BSN program at TSC and ACE’s MSN program feature fully online courses. Upon completing MSN courses, ACE helps place students with completing a practicum in their local area for hands-on experience.

“This partnership gives our nursing students and graduates a valuable opportunity to take the next step in their education with greater flexibility and affordability,” TSC Representative First Last added. “Through ACE’s MSN pathway, TSC students can continue building on the strong foundation they receive here while preparing for expanded opportunities in nursing practice, leadership and education.”
