Overview
The WSU College of Nursing is proud of its reputation for quality education. Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) students who graduate from our undergraduate program consistently achieve one of the highest rates of passage of first-time candidates on the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for baccalaureate-prepared registered nurses in Washington state. Graduates of undergraduate and graduate programs are highly sought after for their excellence in nursing practice.
Founded in 1968, the WSU Intercollegiate College of Nursing is the first and largest public/private nursing education consortium in the United States and provides upper division undergraduate nursing education in partnership with Eastern Washington University and Whitworth University. The college is accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE).
