BSN for High School Graduates
At New Jersey’s Jesuit College, our baccalaureate students will be exposed to a rich “core curriculum” which includes courses in the humanities, natural and social sciences, fine arts, philosophy, and theology. This provides a solid foundation and preparation for the major area of study, while giving students the professional values that are integral to the nursing profession. The purposes of the Nursing Program are to equip the graduate with a breadth of knowledge, skills and values from both general and professional education, prepare the graduate for generalist professional practice in a variety of settings and provide a foundation for graduate education in nursing.
