Important Note on Clinical & Licensure Programs

Nursing and other clinical healthcare programs (such as RN-to-BSN pathways) are not 100% online. Programs that lead to licensure typically require in-person clinical hours, skills labs, or practicum placements, as set by the partner university and the nursing/health licensing board in the relevant state or country. Your advisor will walk you through the specific in-person requirements — if any — for any clinical program before you apply, so there are no surprises.
