ANNOUNCEMENT
School of Nursing Second Degree Accelerated BSN Program Update: As of April 27, 2012 the School of Nursing CLOSED applications for Fall 2012 due to the high volume received. Applications submitted on or before April 27, 2012 will be allowed to complete; please submit all supporting documents to the Office of Admissions as soon as possible for best consideration. The School of Nursing is one of our most competitive schools and with a small class size we have to cap the amount of students we accept into the program.

Admissions Requirements

"I chose Catholic because I get the best of both worlds. I love the feel of a small close-knit campus at which I am valued as an individual by both professors and friends.

- Vanessa Tendick, CUA Alumna.
