Our Transfer Nursing Program Can Help You Become a Nurse in 16 Months
There are many reasons you might pursue the Accelerated Transfer BSN at Brenau University. Perhaps you have already completed general education requirements at a community college, have been wait-listed for a nursing program, or even want to make the change from a larger university to a close-knit campus like ours.
Whatever your reason, we’re prepared to look at your wide range of experience and help you get the credit you deserve and make the transfer experience seamless.
Our unique Accelerated Transfer BSN program is designed for those with some prior education. The program is open to students who have completed 60 credit hours or an associate or bachelor’s degree in a non-nursing field. The Accelerated Transfer BSN provides the education, training and personal support necessary to sit for the NCLEX exam and gain initial licensure as a registered nurse (RN).
