Program(s) Available: Pre-professional
Do you love helping others? Are you focused on improving the health and wellbeing of patients? As a nurse, you'll get the chance to leave a positive mark on someone's life. If you are a compassionate individual, a pre-nursing major may be right for you.
The course selection for pre-nursing students is flexible and designed to fulfill the requirements of institutions that Northwest students plan on applying to after graduation.
Typically, students are at Northwest for two years, completing general education courses and prerequisite courses for nursing school. Then, they transfer and complete the last two years of the traditional nursing track at the institution of their choice. Northwest students have found great success both at Northwest and nursing school!
