Partnership in Nursing Education Nursing is an extremely competitive degree program. In some colleges or universities nursing students face tough competition to get into clinical nursing classes, usually the beginning of their junior year. Some nursing schools admit five freshmen for every clinical nursing seat. They guarantee progression of qualified Army ROTC nurse cadets into the clinical nursing classes. The NSTP is a three-week clinical elective for Army ROTC nurse cadets.
Attendance is voluntary.
This paid elective is conducted at Army hospitals in the United States, Germany and Korea. You attend NSTP during the summer with Advanced Camp, which is usually attended between the Junior and Senior year of college. Regular coaching sessions will monitor your performance and enhance your progress. Partnership in Nursing Education Programs award academic credit for this program. And by summer's end, NSTP will have shown you a preview of the real world of nursing, developed your professional skills and given you valuable insights into your abilities.
