Military - Non-traditional curriculum

Courses in the major are scheduled in fall, spring and summer semesters for two calendar years. This plan is best suited to students seeking a second bachelors degree and/or those who have completed all of the 100-200 level courses found on the BSN curriculum guide. Courses and clinical experiences are scheduled during the week.
