The program which leads to the B.S.N. is composed of pre-nursing courses and general education courses, which are taken in University College, followed by the professional nursing major. After having completed the pre-nursing phase of the program, students are admitted selectively to the College of Nursing to begin the nursing major in fall or spring. Once admitted to the major, the student must be full time, attending five consecutive semesters. During these semesters the student must be enrolled for all required courses.
Clinical laboratories are in a variety of community settings.
All students in the clinical nursing courses are required to provide their own transportation to the areas where they are assigned for patient-care experience. No minor is required for the baccalaureate program. No minors are available in nursing. All undergraduate students are required to complete a common general education program. Designed to provide a foundation for university learning, the program develops students' creative and analytical skills and integrates knowledge across university disciplines.
