The Accelerated Master's in Nursing Pathway (AMNP) provides an option for students who have a bachelor's degree in a field other than nursing and are not registered nurses to pursue a nursing degree. This unique category of students is eligible for master's level admission to this graduate program once prerequisite nursing foundation course requirements are met. The program has been developed in response to the growing need for well-educated, highly skilled professionals who can manage complexity within clinical environments. Upon completion of the pre-licensure phase of the program, students apply to take the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN). Students may work as an RN while completing requirements for the MSN degree.

Students who complete Phase II of the AMNP program will be prepared to take the Clinical Nurse Leader (CNL) national board certification exam through the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN). The CNL is a microsystem leader in all health-care delivery system settings in which health care is delivered.
