Fastest RN to BSN?

by mpolice

I'm looking for the quickest route to my BSN online. Univ of Phoenix is in the lead with only 4 pre-req's, with 5-6 week semesters. It would take me 2 years. Univ of Michigan-Flint had about the same pre-req's but their semesters are about 12 weeks. Does anyone know of an even quicker route than Univ of Phoenix? My intention is actually to move beyond my BSN so I can get a nursing job that's "off my feet." Thanks for any input. Marie

I don't know about anywhere else, but at UTA here in North Texas, it takes 2 semesters to get your BSN once you have the RN. That is 9 months of school.

Thanks for your reply. I looked up UTA and it doesn't look like they have an online program. I'll keep searching though. Marie

Sorry, I did find something about Distance Education. I'll email or call the university tomorrow and check it out. Thanks again. Marie

mpolice.... you didn't mention if you have an ADN or a diploma. I went to UOP for the RN to BSN program. I enrolled before having my credits evaluated and the program ended up taking much longer than I expected because I was a diploma grad.
