ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS
To be admitted to regular standing in the School of Nursing Education,
applicants must be registered nurses, graduates of schools of nursing of approved
standards and in addition must meet the regular entrance requirements
of the University by certificate from an accredited high school or private secondary
school, giving the equivalent of four years of satisfactory high school
work, or by examination.
Furthermore, at least one year of graduate experience in some educational
or executive work in schools of nursing is highly desirable for all prospective
students.
For admission by certificate, the applicant should file with the School not
later than September 1, a Certificate of Preparation made out on a blank form
furnished upon request. And a special blank giving applicant's professional
training and experience will be required of all students.
All women students must first register at the office of the Dean of Women,
22 East Lawn.
Special Students.—A limited number of graduate nurses of more mature
age whose general education has not included a complete high school course
may be admitted as special students. But they must present evidence of satisfactory
professional and personal qualifications and ability to pursue the course
in Nursing Education successfully. No special student may be a candidate for
a degree; but such students are permitted and encouraged to make up deficiencies
by private study or by taking courses in the Summer Quarter. They will
then be admitted as regular students, and may be accepted as applicants for the
degree, provided all entrance requirements are met at least one academic year
before the date of graduation.
College Credit.—A maximum of 15 session-hours may be granted for
one year of college work and 33 hours for two years. In no case will credit be
given on more than 33 session-hours of work done in another college, and any
student who receives this maximum amount of credit must take the remaining
15 session-hours required for her degree in residence in a regular session of
nine months in this University.
