Students can complete the nursing major courses in one (1) calendar year (fall, spring, and summer) based on course availability. However, each student's plan of study differs according to their past education. The timeline is developed for each student following admission to the program, when a transcript evaluation is completed.
Students do not need to come to Wyoming, since program courses are all online. Students
may want to complete some of the general education requirements at a community college
in their geographic area; however, all courses are available online through UW. All
students are encouraged to attend graduation ceremonies.
Community college courses are lower division courses and do not meet these requirements.
The School of Nursing requires upper division pathophysiology and pharmacology courses.
Students should plan to take PHCY 3450 and PHCY 4470 at the University of Wyoming
in order to meet the 30-hour Residency Requirement.
