SPECIAL ADMISSION INFORMATION REGARDING THE COLLEGE OF NURSING

Admission to the College of Nursing is selective and competitive. Applicants for admission to the College of Nursing must first meet the general admission requirements to The University of Arizona. Students must complete the pre-nursing curriculum prior to entering the College of Nursing. Attendance at a College of Nursing information session is highly recommended.
Application for admission to the College of Nursing should be filed by February 1 for students seeking admission to the fall semester and by September 1 for students seeking admission to the spring semester. Click here for the special application for the College of Nursing

Requirements for application to the College of Nursing are as follows:

  1. Submit an application for admission to The University of Arizona. 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.
  4. A minimum cumulative grade-point average of 2.750 (on a 4.00 scale) on all course work completed at post secondary institutions previously attended and  course work completed at The University of Arizona.
