A Holistic Approach to Admissions

We are looking for applicants who have graduated from an accredited high school or have an equivalent qualification (such as a GED) with a minimum cumulative High School GPA of 2.50. However, we believe that a student’s potential isn't always measured by GPA alone. That’s why we take a holistic approach to admissions for applicants whose cumulative high school GPA is between 2.40 and 2.49. Through a personal essay and faculty interview, we look beyond the numbers to understand each student’s experiences, dedication to nursing, and persistence and compassion for others - qualities that are essential to success in the profession.

An Affordable Program To Launch Your Career

With a commitment to expanding access to nursing education for underrepresented and underserved students, the PHSU BSN program not only prepares graduates for licensure but also empowers them to become skilled, compassionate leaders ready to meet today’s healthcare challenges. PHSU aims to make education affordable for all students. That’s why we offer a variety of scholarships and payment plans to help you finance your education. Our financial resources team is available to work with each student to create a feasible financial strategy so students can focus on learning.
