Bachelor of Nursing Program

The University of Calgary offers an innovative Bachelor of Nursing degree to prepare students for the opportunities and challenges of a nursing career in a changing health-care system. Throughout the program, students are provided with a sound theoretical base and supervised practice experience in a variety of nursing settings. Three BN routes are available: a four-year route for high school students, a two and one-half year route for transfer students and a two-year route for degree holders.

Note: Students enrolled at the Calgary Campus, who wish to transfer to the UC-Qatar Campus or Medicine Hat College, must apply for admission at the desired site. Admission will be based on the student's grade point average and the availability of seats.

Bachelor of Nursing Program at Medicine Hat College Site

The Bachelor of Nursing program at Medicine Hat College is a partnership program offered entirely at the Medicine Hat College site, allowing students in the Medicine Hat area increased access to a baccalaureate program without having to relocate.

Note: Students enrolled at the Medicine Hat College Site, who wish to transfer to the Calgary Campus, must apply to the University of Calgary Bachelor of Nursing Direct Entry Route. Requests will be reviewed by the Dean (or designate) on a competitive basis considering the student's cumulative grade point average and space available at the level/year that the student wishes to transfer into. Additional supporting documentation is required as outlined in Nursing Faculty Regulations 3.1 Attendance in a Prior Nursing Program.
