I've heard a lot of bad things but I've also heard some good things as well. Most of the people that I've talked to that went through this program said that it is do-able. Every accelerated nursing program you go into is going to be super super hard. It's 4 years of nursing crammed into 1 year. Since Bellarmine accepts majority of the people that apply, the weeding out process starts in the courses early... Especially for individuals that are not out of the party mode yet and especially for the ones that don't fully commit. I know some of the professors are going to be tough just like everywhere else and that some courses are known for weeding out people but I wouldn't completely forget about going here. I've talked to people that graduated there, nurses in hospitals in Louisville and professors and they said that Bellarmine is the place to go mainly because most of the hospitals like seeing Bellarmine Accelerated Nursing grads and you'll get jobs that you want right out of graduation. Since you're still there currently, how do you study and such? What are the exams like? And what was the first week of classes like in May? Thanks for commenting!
