Now Enrolling: School of Nursing Offers Expanded Start Dates

The School of Nursing now offers three start dates a year for select nursing programs.

Applicants can choose to begin classes in the fall, spring or summer when applying to the following programs:

  • RN-BSN
  • Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) in Family Nurse Practitioner, Forensic Nursing, or Nursing Education and Faculty Role
  • Post-Master’s Certificate in Family Nurse Practitioner or the new 15-credit Forensic Nursing or Nursing Education option
  • Doctor of Nurse Practice (DNP).

“Historically, the school offered a summer-only admission cycle,” said Devon George, marketing and recruitment director in the School of Nursing. “The multiple admission dates will make the programs more accessible for students who are unable to accommodate a traditional fall start.”

In addition to expanded admission options, students enrolling in the MSN, DNP and Ph.D. programs may enhance their degrees with new concentrations in:

  • Nursing Education and Faculty Role
  • Forensic Nursing
  • Transcultural Nursing.

The Ph.D. in Nursing and the new Ph.D. in Nursing Ethics programs will both continue to have summer start dates.

Application deadlines and program start dates are available online. University tuition remission benefits are available for eligible employees and their dependents.
