Program Overview
Earn your bachelor’s degree in two years with our accelerated nursing program.
You already have a bachelor’s degree, so we made it easy for you to get started in nursing with an accelerated BSN. Our accelerated nursing degree helps you build upon your existing education so that you can transition to a nursing career.
- Over the course of the accelerated BSN degree, you’ll gain a better understanding of what it takes to address individual and community health needs.
- In addition to the work you do in the classroom, you’ll also have clinical experiences through a community health practicum, a leadership practicum and a nursing capstone clinical.
- As a graduate, you’ll be prepared to obtain your nursing license and move into nursing roles within healthcare environments.
