Traditional BSN Program
Traditional BSN program students complete coursework emphasizing health promotion, disease prevention, health restoration, and health maintenance. The curriculum reflects the current trends in health care, focusing on wellness/illness concepts and the delivery of care in both hospital and community based settings.
Applications and due dates for Columbus, Indianapolis, and Bloomington may be found at each campus’ School of Nursing website. Students interested in nursing on another IU campus should consult the website of that campus for more information about nursing. The admission process is competitive, and acceptance depends on the number of applicants and the applicant’s ability to compete academically in the pool of applicants.
