PROGRESSION:
Students must maintain an overall GPA of 2.0 in order to progress and graduate with a BSN degree. If a student receives a D or F in a course the student will not be allowed to continue in the Accelerated Program.
The student may be allowed to convert to the Traditional Baccalaureate Nursing Program as space is available; however this may prolong the course of study. If, after converting to the Traditional BSN Program, the student receives another D or F in any course the student will be dismissed from the program.
WITHDRAWAL:
Course withdrawals are not allowed in the Accelerated Baccalaureate Program.
If a student withdraws from a course the student will not be allowed to continue in the Accelerated Program but may be allowed to convert to the Traditional BSN program. Once the student converts to the
BSN program only one additional course withdrawal is allowed.
