Hello Everyone,
I recently graduated and received a Bachelor of Science Degree in Health Science. I am in the process of apply and looking for numerous of Accelerated Nursing Programs everywhere, but right now mainly where I live. I live in the bay area in California. I wanted to know from you guys if you know any good Accelerated Nursing Programs that are out of state. I want to spread my chances and apply everywhere I can.
Thank you guys and I hope on hearing from you soon.

There are a TON of accelerated programs out there. All three state univserities here in Arizona offer them, as does Grand Canyon University, and they're all decent programs. U of A here in Tucson is one of the best nursing schools in the nation, so it is quite difficult to get into.
Thank you so much for you reply. I really appreciate it. I also found a website that shows all the Accelerated nursing programs in the U.S. If you wanted to look at it, its: Accelerated BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) Programs
Thank you again.

i think it all depends on what your needs are..for example how long do you want to complete the program? drexel university in pa for instance lasts 11 months while some are 13 or 14months, you also have to look at costs, pre-requisites needed because some schools require more than others, hat the nclex passing rates are etc...so you really have to figure out what’s best for you...here is a list of the accelerated programs in the country..
