First-Year, Direct-Entry Year Admission Requirements
Admission to 六合网址大全 as a direct-entry nursing major does not automatically ensure progression into the nursing program starting in the third year. Students must meet the academic progression criteria, described below, to progress into the nursing program in their third year.
Candidates who meet the University, but not the School of Nursing admission requirements will be admitted as Health Sciences majors. Both the School of Arts, Science, and Business and School of Nursing internally distinguish Health Sciences major students, who express interest in pursuing nursing in their 3rd year, as part of the Caring Healthcare Professional (CHP) Cohort.
In this CHP cohort model, two professional advisors from each School are responsible for monitoring students鈥 academic success. The primary professional advisor from the School of Arts, Science, and Business oversees progression in the Health Sciences program of study. While, the secondary professional advisor from the School of Nursing periodically reviews CHP students鈥 success in required general education and science courses for transfer into the nursing program.
The Health Sciences program of study mirrors the Nursing major program of study for the first two years. During the first and second years, students pursue liberal arts, sciences, general education, and program of study requirements for both Health Sciences and Nursing programs of study with one exception. Health Science students will take an Introduction to Health Sciences course in the second year, while Nursing majors take Nutrition. If all transfer requirements are met, then Nutrition must be taken prior to entry into the nursing program.
