Idaho State University's Accelerated Nursing undergraduate degree is offered to individuals who have a completed bachelor's degree in another discipline and wish to make a career change. Students earn a nursing bachelor’s degree in three semesters and enter the workforce just one year following program admission (please review the list of specific prerequisites required to apply). The Accelerated Program provides learning opportunities for undergraduate students in a variety of classroom and clinical settings to prepare students to take the National Council Licensure Examination Registered Nurse (NCLEX-RN) to secure licensure as a professional nurse. The School of Nursing offers one program application a year that opens in the Fall semester and is due in early Spring semester. The Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing program will admit up to 50 students to the Meridian campus and up to 20 students to the Pocatello campus for the start of the Summer Semester, around the second week in May.
