Undergraduate Nursing Curriculum

Admission to clinical nursing courses requires submission of an application to the School of Nursing by the specified deadline and is based on a cumulative GPA on required pre-requisite courses. In addition to the traditional nursing curriculum, an accelerated option is available for students with a prior bachelor’s degree. RN to BS and LPN to BS options are also available.
