Marian University
Have you always dreamed of becoming a nurse, but never had the opportunity? Are you interested in switching careers? If you hold a baccalaureate degree in a non-nursing major, then Marian University’s accelerated BSN program is for you. The accelerated program offers non-working students the opportunity to finish their BSN in as little as 16 months.
The demand for clinically-competent, professional, registered nurses in the United States has never been higher. Many people are searching for the rewards that registered nursing can bring them, but we all know that earning the necessary credentials is time-consuming. Through an innovative collaboration between Marian University and St.Vincent Health in Indianapolis, Indiana, students can realize their dreams.
The accelerated online program offers a comprehensive nursing education that allows you to earn a BSN in just 16 months. This program blends the personal convenience of online course study with enriching clinical learning at St.Vincent Health facilities throughout Indiana. You will join a community of students and will be guided by faculty online and on-site in a flexible but deadline-driven setting that sufficiently prepares you for a career in nursing.
Choosing to be a nurse is a life changing experience. You help solve a problem, help people in need and help yourself. Nurses handle complex critical thinking, deliver the majority of patient care and perform life-saving efforts. As more and more baby boomers reach retirement age the need for nurses only increases.
The accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) is designed for students who have a minimum of a previous bachelor’s degree in a discipline other than nursing. This program blends tradition and technology. Your clinicals will be completed at healthcare facilities throughout Indianapolis where you will learn in an intensive clinical environment that will refine your competencies.
Graduates of the program receive a BSN degree from Marian University. They are eligible to take the NCLEX-RN in preparation for licensure as a Registered Nurse in the State of Indiana, and are also be able to apply for graduate programs of study in nursing.
