In addition to grades, completion of prerequisites, medical experience, volunteer experience, and extracurricular activities are factors considered for admission. While an interview in not required, GBCN prefers to meet with applicants to discuss their academic file and GBCN's Nursing program. Students are accepted to the Nursing program twice each year, either for Fall or Spring semester. The Nursing program at GBCN offers three years of clinical experience. It is strongly recommended that students complete all core courses prior to beginning the Nursing program.
Grades are the primary factor in selection for admission.
Applicants are randomly selected for an interview, and a standard form is used for every interview. Students are accepted to the Nursing program twice each year, either for Fall or Spring semester. Students usually are notified about the outcome of their application within four weeks of the application deadline. Students must apply both to Georgia Southern University and to the Nursing program. With the exception of one elective, all core courses must be completed before beginning the Nursing program.
