Prepare Yourself for the Future of Nursing
The Nursing program at St. Francois College is a 62 credit program that is only open to qualified transfer students with a valid RN license. We are registered with the New York State Education Department and accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE), the accrediting arm of the American Association of Colleges of Nursing. The Nursing major offers a Bachelor of Science degree and requires that students demonstrate knowledge and skills in the liberal arts and sciences including mathematics, natural sciences, social sciences, history, the arts, and basic communication. Flexible scheduling permits full- or part-time study. In fact, the program is designed for nurses who wish to remain employed while continuing their education. To do that, courses are scheduled to best fit the time commitments of working nurses. Students interested in completing the Nursing program on a part-time basis must complete a minimum of 12 credits per year, including intersession sessions.
