Accelerated BSN degree from a foreign nursing school?


Is there such thing outside the U.S. ?

-A college/University offering BSN in Nursing in 12-18 months
(I hold a bachelor in non-nursing and only interested in fast track program)
-The program should meet all or most of Board of Nursing eligibility requirements to take the NCLEX exam for licensure in California
-Classes taught in English
-Accepts foreign students
-Is a an accredited or reputable nursing school according to the Board of Nursing in the United States

What are the names of these Nursing Schools? I would like to hear from those who have done this and are now licences RN's. Thank you!

The big issue is, are you an American? If not, these programs are not currently accepted by immigration for a green card.

Canada has several programs like what you are looking for, but the tuition will be quite expensive, more than here as you would be international student, and they have waiting lists as well.
