The
Mississippi College School of Nursing was established in
1969, and graduated its first class in 1973. The School
of Nursing is accredited by the Mississippi Board of Institutions
of Higher Learning, and the National League for Nursing,
Council of Baccalaureate and Higher Degree Programs.
The
School of Nursing offers a program of study leading to
a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree. This is the basic
professional degree for nurses and is the foundation for
graduate nursing education. The nursing curriculum is designed
to enable the student to secure a broad foundation in general
education with content in professional nursing education.
The School offers two tracks for completion of the baccalaureate
degree: the generic track for traditional students and
an online RN-to-BSN track for registered nurse students.
