Course overview
Our nursing program is direct admission—once you are accepted to Stevenson you are also accepted to our nursing program. Unlike programs at other schools, you do not have to take years of coursework to apply to our nursing program. At Stevenson, you enter the nursing program upon admission, so you can start receiving program-specific guidance and continuity from your first semester. Small classes and clinical groups afford rich opportunities to build one-on-one professional mentoring relationships with Stevenson’s experienced nursing faculty. Beginning in your third year, clinical nursing courses will allow you to engage with real-life healthcare issues. Through our partnerships with leading regional healthcare systems and local hospitals, you will gain valuable first-hand clinical experience in community settings. For more than 30 years, Stevenson’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing program has been preparing students to pursue their passions, achieve their career goals, and help those in need. With over 4,000 graduates, this program prepares students to take on the critical and expanding role of a nurse in today’s healthcare system by emphasizing ethical care, developing strong critical-thinking skills, and fostering a spirit of inquiry across education, practice, service, and research.
