Bachelor of Science in Nursing

About this programme

At North West College we offer the opportunity to complete the pre-professional year at our Battlefords Campus. Students for the pre-professional year would apply through the University of Saskatchewan's College of Arts and Science and complete the 30 credit units of courses required for year 1 of the degree program. If, after you complete your pre-professional year, you decide you do not want to pursue nursing, you can remain in the College of Arts and Science and continue to work toward another program of study. The pre-professional year of study at a post-secondary level provides a solid foundation in university education, preparation for upper-year nursing classes and transferable credits to other health science degrees. All students interested in pursuing nursing for years 2, 3 and 4 at the College of Nursing North West College site in North Battleford must apply for admission to the College of Nursing during the first year of study. Pre-professional courses must be completed by April 30 if you wish to start year 2 of nursing in September. See detailed course requirements for the 30 credit units of pre-professional year courses that are required for admission to the second year of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program.
