All students who meet the minimum requirements for admittance into The University of Akron and intend to major in nursing are accepted into the College of Health and Human Sciences. The School of Nursing conducts a second review of candidates to ensure eligibility for continuation in the major.
If you are coming directly from high school, your high school records determine which first semester classes are right for you.
Students will begin the professional nursing sequence after pre-requisites have been met. This is a competitive program and during high application years, some eligible students may be placed on a waitlist.
For our international students:
If you are outside the USA at the time of your application, we regret that the ADN degree does not meet immigration regulations for a new F-1 student. As such, it is not open to international students in F-1 status who will be new to the USA at the start of their program. However, if you are an international student in F-1 status (or another visa status) who is inside the USA at time of application, please contact the International Center (Immigration@uakron.edu) so we can discuss your situation before you apply.
