Since the NCIN program started, students in the Accelerated Program for Non-Nurses have developed and participated in many projects targeting low-income and disenfranchised people. This has deepened students’ understanding of health care and the factors that influence it.

Since receiving its first NCIN grant, the school of nursing has more than doubled the number of faculty members from groups underrepresented in nursing and doubled the number of male faculty. It has also hired seven NCIN program graduates as faculty, and several of them mentor new NCIN scholars. School leaders also meet monthly with scholars to help them succeed academically and prepare them to become leaders.
