Abstract
This cross-sectional study examined accelerated second-degree (n = 117) and traditional (n = 71) baccalaureate nursing (BSN) graduates from a large, private, urban university in the mid-Atlantic United States regarding demographics, professional outcomes, and career satisfaction using an electronic survey. Results showed a statistically significant difference in two professional development variables: plans to return for an advanced nursing degree and membership in nursing professional organizations. There was no statistically significant difference in career satisfaction between accelerated second-degree and traditional BSN graduates. These findings indicated that both accelerated second-degree and traditional BSN graduates, despite matriculation in different nursing curricular models, have similar professional outcomes and career satisfaction.
