As part of the admission process, official transcripts of course work completed at all post secondary institutions previously attended must be sent directly from those institutions to the Office of Admissions and New Student Enrollment at The University of Arizona.
2. Submit the special application for the College of Nursing.
3. Provide the College of Nursing with official transcripts of course work completed at each post-secondary institution previously attended.
