MSN - Clinical Nurse Leader

Admissions

Applicants for this program will have earned an undergraduate or graduate degree in a non-nursing area. The program will begin each January. Admission is competitive. Students must meet the following requirements to be considered for admission to the MSN-Clinical Nurse Leader program:

• Baccalaureate or advanced degree in a non-nursing area
• A minimum of a 3.0 grade point average
• Complete personal essays
• Provide a current resume/portfolio
• Meet minimum computer competencies

This program is a full-time plan of study that is block scheduled in a "lock-step" manner. The program will run four consecutive semesters, including summer. It is strongly advised that students do not work while enrolled in this plan of study. Students will progress through the program as a unified cohort. Should a student leave the program (for any reason other than academic or professional misconduct), the student will be required to wait one year for re-entry into the program, and will be permitted to do so only on a space available basis.

The next opportunity to apply will be for study beginning in January of 2009. Please check back here in late January of 2008 for the new application. Thank you for your interest in our program.
