BS to MS & RN/BS to MS Fast-Track Programs  Undergraduate Nursing
The BS to MS and the RN/BS to MS Fast-Track Programs provide an accelerated approach for qualified traditional and RN baccalaureate students to obtain the Master of Science degree in Advanced Practice Nursing. The programs allow graduate level courses to fulfill undergraduate requirements. This will shorten graduate degree requirements without compromising didactic and clinical learning experiences.

The application deadline for graduate study is August 1st for fall admission. Students interested in the fast-track program should consult with their advisor and the graduate program director during their junior year at the Wegmans School of Nursing.
RN/BS students apply to the graduate program after completing four undergraduate RN/BS courses. Application deadlines are August 1 for fall admission, November 15 for spring and April 15 for summer admission. Students interested in the fast-track program should consult with their advisor and the graduate program director.
The student in these accelerated programs may take up to six or seven credits of graduate courses at the undergraduate tuition rate. All liberal arts and science requirements for the baccalaureate degree must be met.
