University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio
The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio's School of Nursing is located at 7703 Floyd Curl Drive in San Antonio, part of a public academic health center. The school enrolls about 789 undergraduate and 300 graduate students across six academic programs, including BSN, MSN, DNP, and PhD degrees along with specialty certificates.
The traditional BSN track, for students with no prior nursing education, runs 24 months, while an accelerated track lets students who already hold a bachelor's degree in another field finish in 15 months. Graduate options include an MSN with Administrative Management and Clinical Nurse Leader tracks, and a Doctor of Nursing Practice that BSN-prepared students can typically complete in 36 months.
The baccalaureate, master's, DNP, and post-graduate certificate programs are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, with full accreditation granted through December 31, 2028 following the school's last on-site evaluation in 2018. The university overall is also accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges.

Programs
A BSN is a 4-year university RN degree, widely preferred by employers and required for many advanced roles, whose graduates are eligible to take the NCLEX-RN.
An MSN is a 2–3 year graduate degree that prepares RNs for advanced practice, leadership, and specialized roles such as nurse practitioner or nurse educator.
A DNP is the highest clinical nursing degree, taking 2–4 years, preparing nurses for advanced practice, executive leadership, and policy roles—distinct from the research-focused PhD.
A post-graduate APRN certificate is a 12–24 month credential that lets MSN-prepared nurses add or change an advanced practice specialty without earning a second degree.
