ABSN Admissions Overview
With nurses in high demand in Georgia and across the United States, there has never been a better time to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree at Mercer University. Mercer’s Second Degree Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) track offers three start dates per year in May, August, and January. If you have a non-nursing bachelor’s degree and meet the accelerated BSN admissions requirements, you can begin the journey toward your nursing degree in as few as 12 months.
Before you begin coursework and labs, you will need to complete all necessary prerequisite courses. Because of the program’s accelerated pace, Mercer ABSN students must complete these prerequisites before admission to build a strong foundation in essential areas of nursing practice. These subject areas include Human Anatomy and Physiology, Microbiology, Nutrition, Applied Statistical Methods and more.
