ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS AND POLICIES:
Candidates seeking admission to the School of Nursing DNP in Executive Leadership Program must fulfill the graduate program admission requirements with the following additional stipulations:
Graduated with a GPA of at least 3.0 on a 4.0 scale from an accredited baccalaureate nursing program and a 3.3 on a 4.0 scale from an accredited master’s degree program.
BSN-prepared candidates with a master’s degree in a discipline other than nursing may also be considered for admission. If a candidate’s master’s degree is not in nursing, their program of study will be evaluated for coursework that prepares them for DNP study.
Non-MSN candidates may be asked to submit a portfolio of professional practice that highlights their knowledge, skills, and application of the MSN Essentials (i.e., research, health care policy, ethics, role development, foundations of nursing, human diversity and social issues, and health promotion). These students are often required to enroll in additional coursework prior to beginning the DNP program.
Have completed a graduate statistics course within three years of the program’s start date.
Hold a current registered nursing license.
Practiced for a minimum of one year as a Registered Nurse in the United States (preferred).
Transcripts of students whose master’s degrees are from a nursing master’s program other than that at Edgewood University are evaluated on a case-by-case basis to assure attainment of prerequisite knowledge and leadership experience.
Those who have earned an MS in Nursing from Edgewood University within the past 3 years and received at least a 3.3 GPA are guaranteed admission into the DNP program upon application. If a candidate has not met the minimum 3.3 GPA requirement, he/she must apply and meet for an interview to be considered for admittance.
