Master Your Dreams

Our program is unlike any other in the Chicago suburbs—designed specifically for students with bachelor’s degrees in other fields who want to transition into nursing.

Our students come from many different backgrounds but have one thing in common: They have followed their hearts into a career where they know they can make a difference.

Pursue an advanced degree in nursing (MSN) while developing the skills required to become a registered nurse (RN) and preparing to sit for your Clinical Nurse Leader (CNL) certification.

Program Format

• Full-time, Monday–Friday
• On-campus courses
• Evening and weekend clinicals may be required
• Fall start, completed in two years

In this intensive program, it is expected that students are not employed during their time of study. A baccalaureate degree in any field from a regionally accredited institution, with a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.20 on a 4.00 scale, is required.

We make it a point to be very accessible to our students. We want them to feel confident about changing careers.
