Pre-Nursing Program

Start on your nursing degree

The pre-nursing program is your first step toward a bachelor's degree in nursing (BSN).

Take courses that make you eligible to apply to the nursing major (BSN) at Missouri State, or other nursing schools.

Join a proven path to success. Pre-nursing has the highest enrollment of any pre-professional major on campus.

About pre-nursing

Pre-nursing isn't a degree. It's a checklist of courses you need to take before you apply to a traditional Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree program.

Already a registered nurse (RN)? You need the BSN-Completion program.
