Here are the prerequisite requirement courses that need to be completed prior to applying to the program.

Haven't completed some or all? Apply for the Pre-Nursing Option.

* Indicates courses that must have been completed within five years prior to admission.

Nutrition courses must be taken during the sophomore year of the nursing program at MSMU; nutrition courses taken outside of MSMU will be granted general education credit only.

You may repeat a prerequisite course no more than once. Failure (C- and below) of any two pre-requisite courses will result in non-admission to our Pre-Nursing Option or Nursing Program.

If you are interested in knowing which courses taken at four-year colleges and universities are equivalent to MSMU required courses, please schedule an appointment with an admission counselor.
