accelerated BSN programs for transfer students W/O a batchelors

Published

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knew of accelerated BSN programs that are for transfer students - not for students with a batchlors. I live in california; all of the state schools have 3 year programs. These schools have long breaks and waist a lot of time. I am looking for a program that is 2 years that is accelerated. I am willing to move. I think most of these schools would be private. I am currently looking at University of Southern Nevada, which has a 18 month program for transfer students

I would think that as long as you have the require pre-reqs, then you should be fine. But I'd definitely check with the department and see what exactly their requirements are.

Hi there-

I don't know if there is such a thing as an accel BSN for student without a bachelor's degree; could be wrong though. Do you have any of the basic prerequisites completed? Also, beware that the pricetag of a private school will more than likely be outrageous....and the NCLEX passrates for these programs should be thoroughly investigated. Good luck.

The Medical University of South Carolina. I just started this semester, and several students in our class transferred from a college. It's a 16 month program.

I'm in Georgia State's accelerated BSN, and it doesn't require a bachelor's degree. It's also 16 months long. Tough, but so worth it!

Denver School of Nursing in Colorado has a 21 month BSN, you don't have to have a bach's. The great thing: all you have to do is take an entrance exam (very easy!) and fill out an application and they will take you. They have start dates every 3-4 months. The draw back: its $40,000 for the whole program

They to require a lot of pre-reqs!

I also kept in mind that ADN programs that are local..might be a very economical option - and upon entrance, to a hospital, as an RN many offer discounted ADN to BSN education programs on site or via distance.
