First, the Admission Process to Emory College or Oxford College
High school students must first apply for freshman admission through Emory University's Office of Undergraduate Admission. We encourage you to get a jumpstart on researching the admission process at Emory University.
You Have Two Choices at Emory
As we hope you've found over the course of your college search, collegiate success is largely grounded in fit. Where you feel supported, challenged, and empowered is where you will do your best learning. Our firm belief in this ideal is why we offer undergraduate applicants the choice between two different undergraduate experiences at two distinct campuses: Emory College, in Atlanta, GA, and Oxford College in Oxford, GA.
Emory College is a true fit for a student who values academic independence and the resources of one of the largest cities in the country. A student's academics and life outside of class are enhanced by hands-on industry access and internship opportunities.
Oxford College is ideal for a student who seeks an intimate campus and early opportunities for leadership. Oxford students benefit from smaller classes, personal interaction between students and professors, and extensive opportunities to get involved, all of which lay the foundation for the specialized work they do when they continue as juniors at Emory's Atlanta campus.
Second, the Prerequisites
After being accepted to Emory College or Oxford College, students complete the first two years of general education. Students may apply and be admitted to the nursing program while the prerequisites are in progress. All required courses must be completed before enrolling in the BSN program in the fall semester of the junior year.
Emory students applying to the BSN first-degree program will automatically be admitted to the School of Nursing if they meet certain requirements.
Third, the Nursing Education
In the remaining two years at Emory's School of Nursing, you’ll learn the practice of nursing in clinical and classroom settings. The nursing program is designed to be completed in four semesters of full-time enrollment.
Graduates of the BSN program are eligible to take the NCLEX examination to become a Registered Nurse in any U.S. state. BSN graduates can work in a wide array of practices in health care and beyond.
