The Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) is an undergraduate level degree offered at the Arthur Labatt Family School of Nursing at Western University. Western's Arthur Labatt Family School of Nursing offers two ways for students to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) degree. These are Western-Fanshawe Collaborative Program and Compressed Time Frame (CTF) Program. The Western-Fanshawe Collaborative Program is designed for students applying directly from secondary school, or mature applicants, looking to develop the skills and knowledge to begin a career as a Registered Nurse (RN). The Compressed Time Frame Program is a 19-month course of study geared toward students who already hold a university degree, or who have completed at least two years of university, and have completed specific prerequisite courses.
