Students must first apply to the College and, upon acceptance, will be directed to apply to the Wegmans School of Nursing for admission to the junior clinical year. Priority review of completed nursing applications begins April 1 (for both Fall and Spring admission). Applicants enrolled in the 2+2 program must have all documentation submitted no later than April 1 if applying to begin the program in the Fall; Spring 2+2 applicants should have all documented submitted before September. All other applicants will be reviewed on a space available basis for fall and alternatively for the spring semester. Review of completed applications will continue for both the fall and spring semesters as capacity allows.

• Grade of C or higher required in each of the seven nursing prerequisite courses listed above in BOLD and at least a cumulative prerequisite GPA of 2.4. All attempts are calculated in the pre-req GPA.

• Cumulative GPA is calculated using all undergraduate college level course work.
• Score 84% or higher on the SJFC Math Assessment Level A exam is required (two attempts allowed).
