St. Francis Medical Center College of Nursing-Early High School Admissions Program

Hello!


I am reaching out today to inform you that we have adjusted our Early High School Admissions Program! These changes will be extremely beneficial to your students who are interested in pursuing a career in nursing! Below are the changes.

  • No SAT/ACT required

  • No class rank required

  • No application deadline

We will still require that applicants have completed their junior year of high school. We still ask for a 3.25 GPA but will consider those with lower GPAs if space is available. This means any of your students interested in our College of Nursing can apply and have an opportunity to be admitted despite GPA. Our application requires an essay, that will be reviewed for admissions consideration.


Below are a few links for your current seniors and juniors who may be interested in applying!
