Accelerated MSN Programs in TX

I'm hearing little blurbs here and there that there are Accelerated MSN programs out there for people with unrelated Bachelor's degrees. I think UT has one, but does anyone know of any others?

Go to http://www.discovernursing.com and click on the option for accelerated MSN in the search menu, a few schools should show up.

I think Texas Tech has one, but it might be a BSN, not MSN.

I know a few online universities because I am looking for the best one.University of Delaware and Pheonix offer it. I hope it was helpful.

There are accelerated RN-MSN programs - however, they arn't very accellerated. Basically what that means is you get your BS on your way to an MS, but you really only get to skip 3 classes or so.

You skip undergrad assessment adn take grad instead (sounds easy but it's a KILLER) you take grad patho and skip undergrad, and You take grad research and skip the uG version. At least thats how it is at TWU...I think UTHSCSA also has a similar program.

The MSN itself can't be accelerated if you already have a BS to my knowledge. States have certain requirements about how long the programs HAVE to take, how many clinical hours etc.

Hope that helps.
