To pass each nursing course, you must complete both the theory and immersive learning (CL) components. Failing the immersive component means failing the entire course - even if your grade is passing.
To pass the theory portion, you must earn:
At least 75% overall and
An average of 80% on tests
If you pass theory but fail immersive learning, you will still fail the course. Details on the grading scale used by the School of Nursing and the Repeated Course Policy can be found in the Catalog.
In your capstone course, you must show readiness for the NCLEX by passing a series of standardized tests.
To pass a course, you must earn an 80% average or higher on all unit quizzes, midterm, and final exams. Only after reaching this benchmark will your remaining course points be factored into your final grade.
ASN students will be tested on immersive learning skills throughout the program. You must pass each assigned skill and will have three attempts per skill. Failing the final attempt (below 80%) results in failure of the course.
You are expected to be in uniform for virtual activities and participate with their cameras on. You must be mindful of your background and environment to ensure a professional presentation when on camera. You should participate in virtual activity discussions via audio/microphone as opposed to using the chat box.
The School of Nursing is concerned for the health and well-being of students, faculty, and patients. Any nursing student who wishes to return to immersive learning activities after an extended injury and/or illness will be asked to present the Academic Program Head with a medical release signed by a health care practitioner indicating that he or she is approved to return to activities with/without identified restrictions. The student will incur any financial responsibility for this medical release.
