FAQS
What are the ABSN program start dates?
Our hybrid ABSN program offers three start dates per year — in January, May, and September — making it possible to begin your nursing education sooner. Our on-campus ABSN program offers one start date per year in the Fall semester.
What are the ABSN program admissions requirements, and what prerequisites must I complete to be eligible for this program?
To become eligible to enroll in the Notre Dame ABSN, you must have a cumulative undergraduate GPA of 3.0 or higher (on a 4-point scale). Additionally, if you haven’t taken all ABSN prerequisite courses, you must pass them within the minimum grade requirements to become eligible to apply.
Before enrolling in the ABSN program, you must complete several prerequisite courses, which you can learn more about on our eligibility page.
