The School of Nursing at UNCW participates in a comprehensive, holistic admissions review process including quantitative and qualitative criteria for both of our BSN-DNP concentrations. The Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner concentrations strive for diversity of life experiences and thought within our program.
Our holistic review assesses an applicant’s unique life, professional, and personal experiences and attributes alongside traditional measures of academic achievement such as grades and test scores.
Our Frequently Asked Questions page can answer many of your questions. Please review carefully prior to contacting the DNP program.
BSN-DNP Concentrations: Open October 1, 2023 and close February 15, 2024
