*Select courses from P1, P3, P4, P5, and P6. One Perspectives course must be a Freshman Seminar (except for transfer students with 15 or more hours) and one must be upper-level (ULP) outside the major. HSCC 220 (Medical Terminology) is highly recommended as an elective. See your faculty advisor for other recommendations for elective credits. Except for the upper-level Perspectives course, students should plan to complete the Liberal Studies requirements before the junior year.
**NSG 340 is offered during the summer for transfer students or for anyone admitted to the major for the fall semester who has not yet completed this requirement. It may not be taken before the year of admission to the program. This course must be completed with a C or better and may not be repeated.
All students must have at least 60 semester hours credit, 72 preferred, before admission to the upper-division nursing sequence.
