As more nurses look to advance, pursuing a Bachelor’s in Nursing (BSN) can prove to be a great way to stay ahead of the curve. Connecticut is working toward an 80% BSN workforce, and, according to the 美国护理学院协会, nearly 79% of all healthcare employers express a strong preference for BSN grads. Still, the idea of spending four years in a program — especially after you’ve already earned a degree in another field — can be daunting.

An accelerated BSN (ABSN) degree is specifically geared towards those who already have a bachelor’s degree in a non-nursing主要 from a regionally accredited college or university. This option for fast-track learning can certify you for a career in nursing — without any prior nursing experience — in less than two years’ time! 如果这条路听起来适合你，那就往下读。 下面，我们将分解加速BSN的先决条件。

加速BSN入学要求

ABSN的先决条件因课程而异。 Most often, students are required to have a bachelor’s degree (in any field) before applying for admission. 有时，护理学校可能要求一定的先决课程，平均成绩，或入学成绩单。

Admission into the ABSN程序 at 皇冠app involves 几个关键步骤. First and foremost, you must have completed a bachelor’s degree in a non-nursing主要, from an accredited college or university. 额外的加速BSN先决条件包括：

• 申请学校！ 当然，这是你成为护士的第一步。 ABSN项目的申请人必须首先满足学校入学的先决条件，并被皇冠app录取。
• Complete the 项目申请.
• 参加入学前的考试。 该考试在校外进行，每年三次，分别在1月、5月和9月。 考试费用由学生自理。 You can take this pre-entrance exam once per semester for a total of 六个 attempts.
• 在最近的课程（大学）中获得至少3.0或更高的GPA。 Complete Chemistry (CHEM 101) with a minimum grade of “C” before applying.
• Complete two biology courses – BIO 211 and BIO 212, Anatomy and Physiology I and II – with a minimum grade of “C+” or better.

在先决课程方面，未来的ABSN学生也必须在进入皇冠app项目之前完成微生物学。

以上所有要求必须在注册护理205之前完成，这将是你的第一个核心护理课程。

It’s important to know, going into the application process, that not all students who meet the accelerated BSN requirements can be accepted into the program, due to the limited number of places available. 但是，如果你是一个专注、有动力的人，成绩好，对护理充满热情，你就有机会在这个ABSN项目中开始你的职业生涯。
