Nursing FAQ

You can find answers to the following questions on this page:

• How many students do you accept in the RN program?
• How many students do you accept in the PN program?
• What if I don't have all my courses completed before time of application? Will I have to wait another year?
• What if I need to be full-time to receive scholarships?

How many students do you accept in the RN program? 

The number of students accepted is based on our clinical sites. Typically, we admit 75-80 students in the RN program for the Fall semester. Admission letters are sent out in June.

How many students do you accept in the PN program?

Typically, we accept 50 PN students. Admission letters are sent out in June.

What if I don't have all my courses completed before time of application? Will I have to wait another year?

Courses that begin in the spring semester must be successfully completed with a "C" or better to progress. When your application is submitted your GPA will be calculated for the completed courses and then re-calculated following the spring semester coursework to determine your academic standing for admission.

What if I need to be full-time to receive scholarships?

Your nursing advisor can help you select courses that will apply toward an Associate of Science in Nursing and/or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree allowing you to fulfill the FT schedule requirement.
