Here is a summary of the BSN program requirements for students seeking admission specifically contextualized for NTC students:

  • Hold a minimum of 60 non-nursing college credits from an accredited institution.

  • Have a cumulative transfer GPA of 3.0 and a cumulative nursing major prerequisite GPA of 3.0.

  • Request transcripts from all institutions where previously enrolled - though for current Tulane students, this will mean simply contacting the Office of Undergraduate Admission to have your transcript made accessible to the School of Professional Advancement.

  • Complete the program prerequisites within seven years of application to the nursing program.

Students can be referred to explore more here and complete the "Start Your Journey" request.

The program itself is a collaborative effort between the School of Medicine and the School of Professional Advancement. Students completing the program will receive the Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the School of Professional Advancement.

SoPA

For current Tulane undergraduate students, entering the BSN program would require you to transfer from Newcomb-Tulane College to the School of Professional Advancement. Students who have such interest will apply for admission to the program via the School of Professional Advancement. If accepted, coursework will be a hybrid of online and in person instruction on Tulane's Downtown Campus.

Financial Aid

Current Newcomb-Tulane College students who transfer to the School of Professional Advancement will not be able to transfer any scholarships or certain financial aid to the BSN program. The tuition in the School of Professional Advancement is different and in most cases less than the full-time tuition rate of Newcomb-Tulane College. If you decide to apply for admission into this program and are admitted, we would want you to meet with one of our financial aid counselors to best understand the cost differential between the two programs, which will largely depend on your individual financial circumstances and eligibility for federal and state aid.
