I just graduated from an accelerated BSN program that had no waiting list and accepted internation students..but we did have pre-reqs and that is the standard. The only accelerated programs that don't require pre-reqs are 3 year direct entry MSN programs, they include the pre-reqs in the program. I know the University of Texas has one. Best of luck!

I'm really a bit taken back that you actually want to be come a nurse without taking the standard prerequisites. It doesn't work like that and any school that will allow you become a nurse without basic knowledge of A&P is crazy.

I agree with the previous poster, you will be hard-pressed to find a school that does not require pre-requisites. How do you think they boil the material down to 15 months? It's because all the students have already taken a year (or more) worth of pre-requisites. It's not safe to begin nursing courses without an understanding of A&P, biology, chemistry, and in my opinion psychology, ethics, and statistics have helped me a lot in my nursing studies as well.

Prereqs are going to be standard anywhere. If any school offers you otherwise, check into their credibility and accreditation. They would most likely be scammers out for your money with nothing for you to show for it

Well I think you are always going to have general education requirements...most programs don't necessarily have a wait list but are very competitive. As far as accepting international student most schools do, to the best of my knowledge (i researched these schools for my husband who isn't a citizen) with the exception of the programs that requires you to sign a contract with a hospital or facility in return for them paying for your school expensive. Those require citizenship or permanent residency because they cannot have u sign a contract to work for a couple of years, because those on a student visa are only allowed to stay here legally at that status for one year following the completion of their education. This website: http://www.aacn.nche.edu/Publications/Issues/Aug02.htm shows a programs offered by state.
well when i mean NO PREREQUES is only for me to get into the program.so that i can do the prereques along the program.I have done most of the prereque clases.i just wanted a uni that does not require them to get into the program.

Any accelerated BSN with the pre req's built in is a traditional program...I don't think there is an ABSN program without them, otherwise it would not be accelerated. You would need a minimum of a year to do the pre req's and then at least a year to complete the nursing classes.

You have to complete prerequisites because that is fundamentals of your success in nursing program. A&P should be "A" , chemistry and statistics a must. I will say a good psychology course will help you a lot too.
If English is not your major, take English composition and English literature course.
You have to write a lot in nursing school otherwise you will end up missing time for studying nursing courses.
