Program Structure
Fast-Paced Learning in an Online Format
The fully online program allows registered nurses to complete the program in the equivalent of three (3) traditional semesters (approximately one year).
The online cohorts are an adjusted online format, which will include 6- and 8-week terms (two 8-week terms are the equivalent of one traditional 16-week term; the summer terms are each 6 weeks). With this format, students will typically take two (2) courses per 8-week term.
This format will admit a new cohort every January, May, and August. Coursework will be completely online.
Community Engagement and Professional Development
The community experience provides an opportunity for students to gain experience and connect with professional nursing. Those enrolled in the online cohort will identify a community agency in their local vicinity at which to complete most of the community experience hours. Examples of agencies include homeless shelters, public or community health organizations, refugee resettlement programs, hospital case management, hospital outreach programs, home care agencies, health departments or clinics, and organizations or non-profits such as the American Heart Association or the American Red Cross. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to gain experience in the professional field and integrate into the professional nursing community through attending self-scheduled nursing conferences, professional nursing organization meetings, and/or civic meetings.
Work experience as a RN is not required for enrollment in the online program.
