Villanova's Undergraduate Nursing Program is highly regarded. After successful completion of the program, you will earn your bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) degree and join nearly 6,000 alumni around the world who can call themselves Villanova Nurses. Our alumni are well-established in the profession as leading clinicians, researchers, educators and administrators. They are eagerly recruited by employers around the country. What they have in common is their Villanova BSN degree.

The College of Nursing welcomes traditional, transfer and adult students from all backgrounds who wish to earn their BSN — either as a first or second degree — through a challenging program of study. We have several options, including the traditional 4-year course of study, BSN/MSN Gateway Program for Registered Nurses, and two second degree options: BSNExpress and the Alternate Sequence Curriculum.

The Undergraduate Nursing Program is fully accredited and is affiliated with numerous clinical agencies and health systems for clinical experiences.

"A nursing degree from Villanova is a highly respected achievement, as evidenced by the responses I get when I tell people where I received my education."
