Trying to decide on accelerated BSN in KY or TN

[margie26]

I am currently trying to decide on an accelerated BSN program around the Nashville area or in Kentucky. I am originally from Kentucky but am currently living in Tennessee. The three that seem most appealing to me are Marian University (Nashville), Union University (Hendersonville, TN) and Bellarmine University (Louisville). I would love to hear from previous or current students within these programs about their experiences. I would especially like to hear from a Marian student since there has yet to be a graduating class from the Nashville location. Thanks! :)

I did Eastern Kentucky University's Accelerated BSN (graduated in '03). It was 16 months of nonstop classes and clinicals. Was well worth it tho, I passed NCLEX on first try and if ur a KY resident tuition is cheap. Highly regarded program in KY also.
