Second Degree Option
Upcoming Events
An information session is held every third Monday of the month to allow those who are interested an opportunity to meet faculty and ask more specific questions about the program.
All meetings begin at 5 p.m. and are held at the McNichols Campus on the first floor of the College of Health Professions Building. No prior registration is required to attend.
University of Detroit Mercy's accelerated second degree option in nursing allows individuals with a college degree in a related field to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing in 12 months.
The program is designed specifically for students who already hold a minimum of a bachelor's degree. The intensive program has a cohort (all students take the same courses at the same time) curriculum totaling 58 credits.
Students attend classes full time for one full year. A new program begins each May.
While the BSN accelerated program incorporates the same philosophy, conceptual framework and program objectives as UDM's traditional undergraduate nursing pre-licensure program, it comprises a different sequence of courses.
The program recognizes an individual's past experiences and builds upon those strengths. The BSN accelerated program provides the appropriate learning environment for individuals to acquire a nursing degree efficiently and effectively.
