UMDNJ Accelerated BSN??

U.S.A. New Jersey

Published

So I am trying to find an accelerated BSN program in NJ/Philly area that only has Monday through Friday courses/clinicals. I have heard that UMDNJ is mostly just weekdays but can have some weekend clinicals. Does anybody know about this or has been through the program?? And if you get a weekend clinical, does it last through the entire semester or is just a one time thing? Please let me know!! I am ready to be done with my old career and get into nursing quickly!

Im in the program. The clinicals are definitely not a "one time thing" this is where we get our experience from. They are every week and are up to 3-4 x a week depending on which level your in. yes there can be saturday clinicals through out the 4 levels, meaning 4 semesters. If your placed into a saturday clinical you have to do it unless you can find someone to switch it with you. However, through the levels no one has been willing to give up their saturday to someone who has been placed in saturday clinical so dont bank on that. They tell you that once your in the program you have to be available for whatever days you need to be there for.

Thank you, that definitely helps me to make a decision! Doesn't sound like the right one for me. Good luck to you with your school!!
