ABSN Entry Option
If you already have a bachelor’s degree and are interested in becoming a nurse, the ABSN entry option may be right for you.
The course requirements for the accelerated option are the same as those in the traditional BSN, and prerequisites are required. However, this accelerated 12-month program provides a fast track option for students ready for a challenging transition to a career as a bachelor-of-science-educated registered nurse. The ABSN is designed for non-working, full-time students who can immerse themselves into the content.
For more information, check out the traditional BSN degree requirements. To learn more about the accelerated BSN, read the full ABSN option description.
