Hello All!!
I am in the process of applying to the above mentioned school, and I see information on the boards regarding the traditional program but none on the accelerated weekend. I was hoping that I can find someone , anyone on here who has first hand experience on attending this program. Will I still be able to work FT during the weekend an attend school on weekends? Is the program rigorous? Thank you in advance!!

Accelerated BSN on the weekends? What part of it is accelerated? Never heard of such a thing. Are you sure that school offers accelerated BSN on the weekends only?

I learned about this program today and sent and email to the program director Ellen Stanley -.'[email protected]' I will watch this post. I know nursing school gets crazy but if you get in keeps us posted your our eyes and ears on the ground.
I have to work while attending Nursing School so I need a non traditional program.

I think they are a little misleading in that they are calling a 24-month program Accelerated. Anyone who already has a Bachelor's degree should expect to be able to get a BSN in an accelerated 12 months, or 18 months. Two years is standard, not accelerated.
If you can only do weekends it doesn't matter how long it takes, it's obviously not accelerated but it's accommodating and for many people that will be the draw. The weekend commitment not the overall length of program. If it works for you then it's a good thing!
If you private message me your email - I can provide the info provide which is a course sequence breakdown.
that would be very helpful , thank you I'll pm you.
