Accelerated BS in Nursing Plan of Study
The Accelerated BS in Nursing program starts in the fall semester. Courses are offered in person in the fall and spring semesters. Winter and summer session courses are offered online.
In clinical courses, there are at least two days per week of clinical experience each term that can occur on weekdays and/or weekends and on day, evening, and night shifts. NCLEX preparation assessments (ATI) are required during most terms.
