Nursing, Accelerated Prelicensure (BSN)
Fast-Track Your Future in Nursing
with 九色视频's Accelerated BSN Track
This track is for those already holding a baccalaureate degree in another field of study who want to prepare for a career in nursing while earning a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN). The Accelerated Prelicensure track is concentrated and can be completed in four (4) consecutive semesters of full-time study, or about 15 months. Upon graduation from the program, students will sit for the NCLEX-RN licensing exam. This track is designed for those who will possess a baccalaureate degree in another field before entering.
Admissions and Curriculum
Admissions
The Accelerated Prelicensure BSN track admits each semester (spring, summer, & fall) with up to 50 seats in each cohort. Effective for Spring 2025, the School of Nursing will admit the first 50% of available seats for each admission period based on a priority B.S.N. prerequisite coursework GPA of at least 3.60; those applicants who meet the minimum requirements, but not the priority prerequisite GPA requirement will be waitlisted and notified of the program's decision after the deadline. Please see our Frequently Asked Questions for more details.
Curriculum
The curriculum provides a strong scientific base of study with a diversity of clinical experiences and unique opportunities to work with vulnerable and underserved populations. The curriculum is community-based in that it supports engagement with the community throughout the nursing major by nurturing and building relationships with community agencies consistently over time through an innovative home-basing of students in a designated community for the entire length of their nursing program.
Two types of courses make up the nursing curriculum: professional courses and clinical/laboratory courses. Clinical/laboratory courses are distinguished by the C or L that follows the course number. Clinical courses will carry a 1:4 credit-to-contact hour ratio. The nursing curriculum is a full-time course of study and follows a specific sequence.
The School of Nursing is seeking approval for revisions to this degree track, which will include layout and curricular updates. The hope is that the new version is ready for those entering in Fall 2025. Updates regarding the approval process may be posted periodically. Questions regarding the proposed program revisions are welcome.
