Platt College-Aurora Acceptance Rate, GPA, and Admission Requirements

Platt College Colorado no longer exists as an independent school - it was acquired by Concordia University, St. Paul (CSP) in December 2024, and CSP became the governing body of the BSN program on January 1, 2025, using its own CCNE-accredited curriculum for new admits. If you're applying now, you're entering CSP's program, not the historic Platt/ACEN-accredited one; ask admissions directly which accreditation and curriculum version governs your specific cohort.

CSP's Accelerated BSN (ABSN) at the Greenwood Village campus requires only 54 credits of prerequisite coursework to enter the 16-month program - far less than a full bachelor's degree. If you already have unrelated college credit or a degree in another field, get a formal transcript evaluation early to see exactly which of your existing credits count toward that 54-credit threshold, since this is the fastest legitimate path in rather than starting a new degree from scratch.

CSP's ABSN model runs on rolling 8-week start dates with no waitlist, a structurally different admissions calendar than a typical fall/spring nursing program. If you miss a specific cohort's cutoff or want to strengthen your application first, ask what the very next 8-week start date is rather than assuming you have to wait a full semester or academic year.

Because the Denver/Greenwood Village site only recently came under CSP governance, it doesn't yet have its own long NCLEX track record under the new curriculum. CSP's other campuses reported 2025 first-time NCLEX-RN pass rates of about 86.92% (St. Paul) and 92% (Portland) - ask the Denver admissions team directly how the local program's early results compare, since this is the kind of specific, program-level question that signals real due diligence rather than general interest.
