Accelerated Nursing Coursework

The University of Mount Saint Vincent Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) program, delivered at our NYC locations in Riverdale and Long Island City, is based on a rigorous curriculum, combining nursing courses with in-person labs and clinical placements in order to graduate students with a BS in Nursing degree in as few as 16 months.

An on-site based nursing program offers multiple benefits, including a familiar learning format, in-person access to instructors, plenty of opportunities to connect and collaborate with fellow cohort members, and more.

Benefits of Onsite Accelerated Nursing Coursework

Traditional, campus-based nursing courses are a known quantity, and many students might prefer them for their own personal reasons. The increased level of routine of traditional, on-campus courses can be the best setup for some students to succeed.

Additionally, students might be able to learn best when able to ask questions in real time during lectures. In-person questions can help shape the course of the lecture and help students learn. While in-person learning can already improve the educational experience for some, increased proximity to fellow cohort members can help students more easily form connections, study together, and confidently take on the program.

Our Riverdale campus and Queens location house assessment and evaluation rooms, hospital beds, lifelike robotic simulators, and live exam rooms — technology that reflects the latest and best practices for training nursing professionals. All University labs provide students with state-of-the-art patient simulators and virtual learning tools in addition to lecture, study and testing facilities.


Meanwhile, at our Queens locations in Long Island City and Brooklyn location, students have the opportunity to receive hands-on experience with advanced instructional technologies including assessment and evaluation rooms, lifelike robotic simulators, and more.


Additionally, our Accelerated BS in Nursing at Saint Joseph’s Medical Center in Yonkers offers flexible hybrid classes held at Saint Joseph’s Medical Center.
