As I look at the core requirements, the "foundational coursework" is common to all ASN programs. However, instead of 4 credits in Chemistry, I have 3, or 4 credits in Microbiology, I have 3. It's possible the general education requirements do not streamline into every RN to BSN program making the program much longer than 30 credits!

Even ACE states, "Students are required to complete ninety (90) semester credits in addition to the credits listed in ACE course list for satisfactory completion of the program. Inclusive of the ninety (90) semester credits, a required thirty* (30) semester credits of general education must align with the Indiana College Core as defined in the College’s General Education Requirements policy." https://ace.edu/degree-programs/bachelor.../rn-to-bsn
My point is, that these "30-credit RN to BSN" programs may require retaking coursework depending on school and state requirements which means more time and cost. It would be nice to simply find a "30-credit" RN to BSN program that accepts the ASN with 90 credits and does not require a repeat of general education.
