The Bachelor of Science in Nursing - Guaranteed Placement Program provides eligible students with a direct pathway into the WSU (Wichita Campus) BSN Program, allowing them to bypass the standard competitive application process.
The BSN program prepares students for entry-level professional nursing positions in a variety of healthcare settings and provides a foundation for graduate study in nursing.
This unique dual degree program will give students the opportunity to earn both a Bachelor of Science (BS) or Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree from Kansas State University, and a Bachelor of Science degree in nursing (BSN) from Wichita State University.
The RN to BSN program offers a registered nurse, who has received an associate’s degree in nursing and meets the admission criteria, an advanced placement seeking a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree.
The School of Nursing is not enrolling students for the Accelerated BSN program at this time.
