Undergraduate Admissions
Requirements
• In terms of educational preparation, the college preparatory
curriculum minimum unit requirements for regular admissions are
• 4 units of English
• 4 units of social sciences, including world history or a comparable
course
• 3 units of mathematics (must include algebra I, algebra II, and one
unit of either geometry, trigonometry, or calculus)

Degrees
• To be a neonatal nurse, a student must become a
registered nurse (RN) or a nurse-practitioner
(NP). A registered nurse is usually a graduate of a
4-year college or university, although some
community colleges offer specialized programs
designed to train registered nurses in 2 years.
These programs are often run in conjunction with
nearby hospitals to provide clinical experience for
the students. Some hospitals offer 3-year
programs to train and educate registered nurses.
A nurse-practitioner needs a master's degree in
addition to a 4-year degree.
