Program Overview

The purpose of the Post-Degree Bachelor of Science in Nursing (PDBSN) option is to recognize previous university achievements of qualified students and give them the opportunity to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree in a shortened period of time. It is available to students who have completed a baccalaureate degree, or have made significant progress toward a degree in another field.

The option provides opportunity for full-time intensive study over six consecutive terms with program completion in less than two calendar years. Students graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from the University of Saskatchewan.

To become eligible for licensure with the College of Registered Nurses of Saskatchewan (CRNS), graduates must pass the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) administered by Pearson VUE and pay the required fees.
