Nurses General Nursing

Published

I'll be graduating this year with ADN, however I want to continue to get my BSN. I don't care which state, but I wanted to know who in there state have a accelerated RN to BSN online program. Someone in my school mention there is a program in GA which takes 16 months. However she don't attend my school anymore. I was considering Excelsior but someone inform me it still take 2yrs

Why dont' you check out the schools in your area more closely? Most RN to BSN programs are relatively short if you go full time. There is a classroom based on in my area that is a year. I am enrolling in an online program through a university here in my state; if I would bust it out, going full time, I could probably do it in two semesters plus a summer session.

A lot depends upon what sort of prerequisites you have completed. If you don't have the liberal arts and sciences classes--the language, western civ, history, whatever else that particular college requires for its graduates--then you might have to go longer as you won't just be taking nursing classes.

I did mine in 14 months at Regis University, Denver, CO. Each course was 8 weeks in length, and it is a great program! Accelerated and accredited. Worked part time while doing the program.

Hope this helps,

Hi University has an online rn-bsn program.I started the program as soon as I finished my ADN last May. I am finishing up my third quarter now. You can finish the program in 5-6 quarters if you take two to three classes each quarter. I love the program so far, only two more quarters to go!

Thanks everybody, I know if I don't start soon when I graduate. I can keep postponing getting the BSN degree. I'm going to look at all those programs today.
