Valencia/UCF Concurrent ASN to BSN

Earn a BSN Degree Faster at UCF

Concurrent Enrollment Nursing Program with Valencia College

A limited-access, upper-division program

The first of its kind in Florida, UCF’s Concurrent ASN to BSN program allows you to earn an esteemed UCF nursing degree more quickly than the 2+2 model.

Through this unique, concurrent enrollment program, you will take ASN-level courses at Valencia College while also taking BSN courses taught by UCF faculty. When you complete your ASN degree from Valencia, you will already have earned more than half of your BSN credits – and will complete the remainder of UCF’s BSN program in a convenient, flexible online format.

Students who are enrolled in UCF’s Concurrent ASN to BSN program will take the NCLEX-RN after successfully completing the ASN portion of their program and prior to enrolling in their final BSN courses at UCF.

 

Concurrent ASN to BSN students will become eligible for financial aid and scholarships at UCF after completing the ASN degree portion of their program.

Program Length: 6 semesters | Graduate with BSN 1 – 3 Semesters After Completing ASN
Program Type: Limited Access | Cohort | Simultaneous Enrollment in ASN and BSN Programs
Locations: Valencia College | UCF Valencia West

What should I expect in the curriculum?
Qualified students will take ASN-level nursing courses at Valencia College, while taking UCF nursing courses at the same time on UCF’s Valencia West campus. Students will complete their ASN degree with more than half of their BSN credits already earned, allowing them to complete their final one or two semesters of UCF’s BSN degree online after obtaining their RN license. The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) curriculum is very demanding with a strong emphasis on the sciences. The BSN program provides a strong foundation for entry-level nursing practice and advancement into leadership positions and graduate studies. A nurse with a BSN degree provides comprehensive care in a variety of acute, community and rehabilitative settings.

Join a diverse and dynamic group of students committed to excellence, innovation, compassion and service.

At UCF, we believe a college education should be accessible and affordable for all students.
