Progression
Students must maintain an overall GPA of 3.0 on all work attempted in the program. A maximum of two (2) courses with a grade of C can be counted toward a degree, however, only one C is permitted in the specialization courses
or in the following bridge courses; NU 530 Health Assessment, NU 531 Advanced Pathophysiology, and NU 532 Advanced Pharmacology. If a second C is earned in these courses the course in which the second C is obtained
must be repeated. Any combination of three (3) courses with grades of C or less including C grades of repeated courses will result in dismissal from the program. Further, student may withdraw failing from only two courses, the
third withdrawal failing results in dismissal.
Students are required to apply for registered nurse licensure upon completion of the nursing foundation component of the curriculum. Prior to enrolling in the specialty component of the curriculum students must possess their
RN licenses or hold a temporary registered nurse license. Any student failing the licensure examination or allowing their temporary permit to expire will be withdrawn from the program.
