BSN SummerÌýFast Track (online)
ÌýApplication Open: March 1-31
The BSN Summer Fast Track (BSN SFT) Program is an online, jump-start program specifically for students who are enrolled in a regionally accredited Associate’s Degree in Nursing (ADN) Program in California. BSN SFT courses are offered in the summer term only. ADN students are eligible for this program if they have enrolled in at least one semester of their ADN program prior to their BSN SFT summer term and are in good-standing. BSN SFT students are not formally accepted to CSUDH, but attend classes through College of Continuing and Professional Education (CCPE) Special Sessions. This does not guarantee admission to the RN-BSN Program since students must still submit an application to the regular RN-BSN program and meet RN-BSN program and University requirements.
