Accelerated B.S.

If you already have a baccalaureate or higher degree but not in nursing, the VCU School of Nursing has two options for you in its undergraduate nursing program, ranked in the top 4% of nursing undergraduate programs nationwide by U.S. News and World Report.

You may apply to either the accelerated B.S. track - or the traditional B.S. track - The accelerated B.S. track is a faster-paced and rigorous.

After earning a B.S. in nursing, graduates are eligible to apply to take the National Council Licensure Examination for registered nurse licensure. 

Review all application instructions, program overview, admission and degree requirements.  We encourage you to attend one of our information session or contact us at vcu_nurse@vcu.edu if you have questions.
