Post-Master's
The School of Nursing offers several options for Post-Master's study. This program option allows master's-prepared nurses to pursue advanced education, additional specialization and to prepare for certification in selected areas.
The specific program of study is developed by the member of the School of Nursing faculty responsible for coordinating the area of specialty. The program may include course work to re-establish a base of knowledge in a particular area as well as courses in advanced practice not included in the applicant's original degree program.
The School of Nursing selects applicants who are best qualified academically and who have the greatest potential for success in the MSN program. We evaluate all undergraduate and graduate course work and give preference to applicants with an overall grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or higher. Applications and supporting credentials sent before or postmarked by October 1st for spring or January 15th for summer and fall semesters will be given priority for admission and merit based scholarships. However, applications will continue to be accepted and reviewed as long as class space is available.
