(Leavenworth, Kan.)鈥擳he 花椒直播 Accelerated Nursing Program, which allows students to complete a Bachelor of Science in Nursing in just one year, is now open to students with 64 credits of college coursework.
Traditionally, the Accelerated BSN program was only open to students with a prior bachelor's degree. USM has now opened a second entry path for students with an associate degree or prior college credit. For all incoming students, completion of USM's general education requirements and nursing-specific prerequisites is required for admission.
The curriculum requirements are the same as the traditional two-year BSN program. However, students can finish their degree faster and at a lower cost. USM offers one of the most affordable accelerated BSN programs in the Kansas City area.
Students will take 56-59 credit hours and 696 hours of clinical and laboratory experiences. Through this curriculum, USM students become well-prepared and consistently surpass national averages on the National Council Licensure Examination. The national first-time pass rate was in 2021. USM's 2021 first-time NCLEX pass rate was 94.83 percent.
USM is currently enrolling students for a July start date. For more information about the program and admissions requirements, visit stmary.edu/nursing-accelerated
