I think the schools make more money this way and by making the courses standardized , they will not make any money......but yes , find one school that is accredited and cheaper ---that will be community college and state Universities.

Re: Accelerated BSN Programs

The 10 month program isn't a BSN. Here are the two fastest programs I could find.

Drexel ACE BSN - 11 months

http://www.drexel.edu/cnhp/nursing/undergrad_bsn_ace_essentials.asp

"The ACE Program is 11 months in length, the shortest accelerated program in the country."

Our Lady of the Lake ASN - 10 months

http://catalog.ololcollege.acalog.com/preview_program.php?catoid=3&poid=96&bc=1

"The accelerated nursing program is an intense 10-month program designed to provide an avenue into the nursing profession for students who have earned a non-nursing baccalaureate degree."
