Nursing

The demand for nurses and nurse specialists is very strong and salaries are rising to respectable levels. The variety of job settings such as home, hospital, school, community, industry, outpatient clinic, research center or long-term care facility provide for much diversity in the practice of nursing. In many nursing schools the number of men training to be RNs has exceeded ten percent. The most recommended programs for Furman students are those leading to the Bachelor's degree (BSN) in a 2 (years at Furman) + 2 (years in nursing school) arrangement. If a student wishes a dual degree from Furman and the nursing school, the arrangement would be 3 + 2.

Emory University has a nursing program that is quite compatible with a dual degree arrangement with Furman. If you wish to pursue admission to the Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing at Emory University, call (404) 329-7980.

Example:  2 + 2 program
