NursingCAS
Nursing's Centralized Application Service, NursingCAS, offers prospective students a convenient way to apply to nursing programs at participating schools nationwide.
Through NursingCAS, students only need to complete one electronic application and prepare one set of corresponding materials (i.e. references, transcripts) that will be disseminated online to one or multiple schools of nursing for consideration. NursingCAS verifies the application components for accuracy, calculates grade point averages, and sends application materials to the programs designated by the applicant.
Similar to systems in place for medicine, pharmacy, dentistry, and the other health professions, NursingCAS offers students a convenient way to research and apply to multiple nursing schools with a single online application. It is the nation’s only centralized application service for students applying to registered nursing (RN) programs at all levels…from the diploma to the doctorate.
Through NursingCAS, prospective nursing students may apply to diploma, associate degree, baccalaureate, master’s, and doctoral programs offered by participating schools. Nursing school applicants also have access to dedicated customer service support and guidance throughout the application process.
