Pre-Nursing program at 麻豆传媒女神 is not a formal academic program, nor associated with any specific major. Students who are interested in Nursing programs should speak with the admissions and program advisors about the different paths and options leading to a degree in Nursing. Application requirements, including course prerequisites, GPA, and experience, can vary by school and type of program.<\/p>\n<p>An ideal path for students interested in common BSN programs in Oregon, is to declare a Certificate in Pre-Nursing. However, students should meet with the program advisor for additional questions. Students who are interested in doing an accelerated post-baccalaureate program, should meet with a student success coordinator for assistance in choosing an appropriate major within their department. As nursing schools are highly competitive, it is encouraged that students align their curriculum with an academic major, while satisfying the nursing prerequisite requirements. Additional requirements are typically extracurricular such as volunteer or work experience.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about becoming a Nurse, you can visit the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aacnnursing.org\/\" rel=\"noopener\">aacnnursing.org<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-av_button-29c0801b34f7c74357b361aef328a853-wrap avia-button-left  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '><a href="https:\/\/catalog.sou.edu\/preview_program.php?catoid=17&amp;poid=5329"  class='avia-button av-av_button-29c0801b34f7c74357b361aef328a853 av-link-btn avia-icon_select-no avia-size-large avia-position-left avia-color-dark'  target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"  aria-label=\"SEE COURSE REQUIREMENTS\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >SEE COURSE REQUIREMENTS<\/span><\/a><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-av_textblock-c6e83992a50bdbeec9c4bf04f5961c06 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock right-pillow'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The Certificate in Pre-Nursing is designed for students who wish to meet the requirements to apply to Nursing schools in the state of Oregon, by completing coursework including the Human Anatomy and Physiology sequence, Microbiology, Nutrition, Lifespan\/Human Development, and college algebra mathematics course or higher.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, this certificate could be added to the curricula for students who wish to pursue a Bachelor\u2019s degree at SOU. The certificate helps to track additional prerequisite courses needed to apply to accelerated Nursing programs after graduation that require a completed bachelor\u2019s degree in a non-nursing field as well as other required coursework in genetics, statistics, and chemistry.<\/p>\n<p>Although a certificate is not required to apply to Nursing schools, students will be generally better prepared to apply to multiple Nursing programs upon full completion. Graduates that attain the certificate will have met the prerequisite course requirements for most nursing schools in Oregon. However, it is still recommended to investigate the specific prerequisites for each individual nursing program both in and out of state, and discuss additional needs with an advisor.<\/p>\n<p>For questions about this certificate, you may contact the following Student Success Coordinator: Marissa Martes, Student Success Coordinator for Math &amp; Science, <a href=\"mailto:martesm@sou.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">martesm@sou.edu<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-eca8181d19f2e2c48a6b26edfc2333e7\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-eca8181d19f2e2c48a6b26edfc2333e7{\npadding-bottom:20px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-eca8181d19f2e2c48a6b26edfc2333e7 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-eca8181d19f2e2c48a6b26edfc2333e7 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:24px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-eca8181d19f2e2c48a6b26edfc2333e7 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-eca8181d19f2e2c48a6b26edfc2333e7 av-special-heading-h3  avia-builder-el-15  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_toggle_container  right-pillow'><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >FAQ<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<div  class='togglecontainer av-av_toggle_container-0d23d522d20859f94d59c7485c451e65  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_heading  el_before_av_heading  toggle_close_all' >\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-av_toggle-64181474fee7909bab9adb32ee653f15'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p id='toggle-toggle-id-1' data-fake-id='#toggle-id-1' class='toggler  av-title-above '  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-1' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"Does 麻豆传媒女神 have a nursing program?\" data-title-open=\"\" data-aria_collapsed=\"Click to expand: Does 麻豆传媒女神 have a nursing program?\" data-aria_expanded=\"Click to collapse: Does 麻豆传媒女神 have a nursing program?\">Does 麻豆传媒女神 have a nursing program?<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='toggle-id-1' aria-labelledby='toggle-toggle-id-1' role='region' class='toggle_wrap  av-title-above'  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>No, SOU does not have a nursing program.
