Master’s Entry Program:
If you hold a bachelor’s degree in a field other than nursing, the Connell School will launch your advanced practice nursing career in as little as two years of full-time study.

The first full-time year of the program fulfills the requirements necessary to take the R.N. exam and become a registered nurse. The second year, which may be completed part-time, fulfills the requirements necessary to receive a master’s degree and to sit for advanced practice certification.
