list of CA direct entry MSN and accelerated BSN programs


Due to the fact that I had a hard time finding direct entry MSN’s and accelerated BSN’s here in CA (requirements are a bachelor in another field for both), I thought I’d post a list for those looking for one:

Direct entry MSN:

Azusa Pacific University – Second Careers and Nursing (SCAN)
Samuel Merritt College – Entry Level MSN (ELMSN)
San Francisco State University – Generic MS
UC San Francisco – Master’s Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN)
University of San Diego – Master’s Entry Program in Nursing (MEPN)
University of San Francisco – Master’s Entry Option (MEO)
Western University of Health Sciences – MSN Entry (MSN-E), in Pomona

Another one that wasn’t listed is Cal State Los Angeles – entry level Masters (ELM)
And yet another new one is at Loma Linda University, not sure of its title

Accelerated BSN Programs in CA are offered at:

CSU Long Beach
Loma Linda University
Mount St. Mary’s College
Samuel Merritt College

Most of these are found at:
http://www.cnashealth.ucr.edu/nics.pdf
www.allnursingschools.com has many, but not all of them listed as well

feel free to add on if there are any I missed!
hope this helps someone out there...

Thank you, Myethpio!

I’ sure it will help someone.

From the California Board of Registered Nursing:
http://www.rn.ca.gov/schools/rnprgms.htm

The BRN has the authority to approve registered nursing and advanced practice nursing programs in California. The purpose of approval is to ensure the program's compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements. Prelicensure nursing programs must be approved by the BRN.

More info on nursing programs from the Board:

That list is from 2005. Stuff has changed since then. For example, CSU Long Beach no longer has an Accelerated BSN program.

But both Long Beach State and Cal State Fullerton have EL-MSN programs

Cal State Fullerton has an EL-BSN program, too
