Launching in fall 2025, Butler’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program offers an innovative curriculum that merges academic knowledge with practical skills. As a Butler Nursing student, you will benefit from clinical exposure in hospital systems as early as your first year. You’ll work in state-of-the-art simulation labs, gaining exposure to real-world experiences within the safety net of a controlled environment. And, in your last semester, you’ll wrap up your clinical experiences with a 1:1 preceptorship paired with an elective course of your choosing in either cardiology, medical surgical, or perioperative studies. Butler’s Nursing program offers direct admission—a straightforward path to a career in nursing. It means that once you’re admitted, there is no pre-nursing coursework, additional applications, or stress over whether you’ll be admitted.
