15 Months On Campus Accelerated-bachelors Program
Fairfield UniversityAre you thinking you would make a great nurse, but your undergraduate degree is not in nursing? Fairfield University’s Accelerated Second Degree Nursing (ASDNU) program provides a unique opportunity for those with bachelor’s degrees in fields other than nursing to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree in an accelerated format.
For over twenty-five years Fairfield University has offered an exceptional second degree nursing program that has now expanded to our two campus locations; Fairfield, CT and Austin, TX. Here is a brief video showcasing our ASDNU program and our state-of-the-art nursing education facilities at both locations.
Our full-time accelerated programs are designed to draw upon your prior education and experience, allowing you to earn a second bachelor’s degree in 15 months. Previous knowledge serves as a foundation for nursing courses as you develop the social awareness, critical thinking skills, aesthetic sensibility and values that prepare you to sit and pass the NCLEX nursing licensing exam and enter the field of nursing.
