Bachelors (BS) in Nursing

The nursing major offers a 70-semester-hour course of study that is designed to prepare students to function in increasingly complicated health care environments. Students are required to obtain a minimum grade of C in all courses taken for the major.

All nursing majors are required to pass junior and senior level mastery of content through standardized measurement testing. These individual milestones will be used as prerequisites for progression in the nursing major. Nursing majors will not be recommended for graduation until all milestones have been met.
