The file must be complete by February 1 to be considered. A faculty committee reviews completed applications files within six to eight weeks after the February 1 deadline and send letters of admission to selected students. Only completed files are reviewed by the College of Nursing. An alternate list is generated and if space becomes available, an alternate may be chosen for admission. The Medical University of South Carolina offers applicants an admission process that is timely and easy to understand.
Applications are available in electronic form on the Internet, in diskette form, and in hard copy.
All forms originate from the Office of Enrollment Services. A nursing admissions specialist is generally available to answer questions.
