Help Me Find a Low Cost Accelerated BSN program!

Published

Hi All,

I need help finding a quality ABSN program that won't break the bank! What programs do you know of? It's discouraging looking at all these programs that cost over $40,000.

Thanks in advance! :)

Thank you! I'll look into Edinboro :)

CSU Stanislaus has an 18 month ASBSN for around 35k. It is taught in Stockton, CA.

I chose Sac State -- it's only a few months longer, less than half the price, and the NCLEX pass rates are higher.

None. I had scholarships.

I did a 3 semester ADN program and then did WGU for my BSN. I finished my BSN in 4 months. Total cost? Less than $15k, including tuition, books and supplies. Same end point, same amount of time, way less money. (I have a prior BS degree).

Would you mind sharing what ADN program you finished? Was it accelerated?

Did anyone find an affordable absn? I'm trying not to spend 60k on one as well.

That's a great price! Thank you! In state accelerated programs where I am are at least 40k. I am trying to do the right thing and not pay that much money, I am even looking into ADN, but I was reading on AN that getting the BSN first would save time/money ;-/
