New! A Flexible BSN Option

BSN Degree Program—Evening/Weekend Option

The Atlanta BSN degree program—Evening/ Weekend option is available at both of our campus locations. The option is designed to meet the needs of individuals who require an alternative schedule. Night and weekend nursing school students complete courses outside the typical classroom schedule while still receiving the same level of support and resources as traditional weekday students.

If you have wanted to pursue a BSN degree, but a traditional school schedule is holding you back, then the Atlanta BSN Evening/ Weekend Option may be a great fit for you. Balance family, work (part-time rather than full-time employment is strongly recommended), and other responsibilities while attending classes during your free time at night and on Saturdays and Sundays. The Evening/ Weekend Option includes:

  • Weekend clinicals prioritized
  • Complete in as few as 3 years
  • Support from experienced faculty throughout the program
  • Access to the same resources as the daytime program
  • Weekend and night classes for nursing provide flexibility in managing work and personal life
  • Combination of online and in person coursework and student activities
