Applying and licensure
The school admits most applicants (about 100% overall), but that does not mean a nursing seat is guaranteed. Admission to the nursing major or program is often a separate, competitive step with prerequisites, minimum grades, and capped enrollment. Check deadlines with the nursing department, and read our nursing school requirements guide to prepare. To work as a nurse in Virginia, graduates apply for a license with the state board of nursing in Virginia and pass the NCLEX. Before you commit, verify the program’s ACEN or CCNE accreditation and state approval, and compare it with other options on our Virginia nursing schools page.
