Advanced Placement Option
If you’re an LVN and you’ve completed the ASVN program or have taken the required General Education courses, you may apply for Advanced Placement status into the BSN program. This would allow you to skip the first year (three semesters) of the BSN program.
If you think you may qualify for Advanced Placement status, you are encouraged to discuss this option with our Admissions Representatives. You also have the option to take the VN and ASVN programs and continue to BSN through the Advanced Placement path.
