It also offers an accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Check out UPEI's School of Nursing, and you could become a registered nurse before you know it.

McMaster University

McMaster University in Ontario is renowned across Canada for its excellent medical program, and its accelerated nursing program is no exception. Delivered in partnership with both Mohawk College and Conestoga College, you can be sure you're getting a great education from instructors who know their field.

St. Francis Xavier University

St. Francis Xavier University (StFX) in Nova Scotia is another excellent university in the Canadian Maritimes.
