This article is a case study describing the challenges and successes of the creation of a new educational pathway for nurses to concurrently earn the ADN and BSN. To create such an innovative program, challenges were encountered in dealing with curriculum, transcripts, advising, the admissions process, financial aid and logistics. These were all successfully surmounted and the program continues to grow with a lower attrition rate, higher on-time graduation rates and similar NCLEX pass rates when compared to the ADN stand-alone program.
