For those seeking a second career in nursing or a faster pathway to a BSN degree, St. Ambrose University now offers an Accelerated BSN degree.
The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) Accelerated pathway allows professionals who already have earned a bachelor's degree in another field to earn their nursing degree in as few as 16 months.
This particular pathway works well for professionals who have other obligations while earning a degree because these courses are held after 3 p.m. — including the required clinicals.
"The unique aspects of this track are that it is delivered in the evening hours and tailored for students with demonstrated academic success," said Department of Nursing Chair Kathy Andresen, DNP. "This shortened time to complete also allows students to sit for national boards and launch their nursing career in an abbreviated time frame."
Nursing students will take classes in SAU's state-of-the-art Center for Health Sciences Education at Genesis with its ultra-modern simulation labs for hands-on learning. Additionally, SAU nursing faculty have more than 300 years of combined nursing experience.
Admission requirements for this degree pathway are the same as the traditional BSN degree, including prerequisites.
