Program Overview

Bachelor of Science in Nursing: Accelerated Track

Earn a Bachelor of Science (BSN) in Nursing in 15 months with continuous, full-time study. The BSN Accelerated Track is for individuals who are not registered nurses and already hold a baccalaureate degree or higher in a field other than nursing. Individuals accepted to the program have completed prerequisite content and will gain the knowledge, skills, and abilities needed for entry into the nursing profession during their 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th semesters of the four-year degree. Students will also have the opportunity to earn distinction in the areas of research and clinical service. This track prepares graduates for generalist nursing practice across a range of pre-licensure competencies focused on making lives better by promoting health as an act of social justice.

Course Delivery

Students will participate in caring for individuals, families, and communities during clinical rotations scheduled from a network of clinical affiliates in San Antonio and surrounding areas. All BSN courses, clinical rotations, and labs are conducted in-person. Class attendance is required on campus in San Antonio.
