Applications to USF's Graduate School of Nursing are up 56% this year over last year, while undergraduate admissions is showing almost a 10% increase.
Although job markets have softened this past year, the nursing shortage remains critical over the long term. Our applicant pools grow stronger each year as more and more students express an interest in the advancement of nursing education, a development which reflects the increasing complexity of the healthcare system.
Master's-prepared nurses can be key players in the shift toward evidence-based practice which is characteristic of the Magnet Journey, or preparation toward seeking Magnet status awarded by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) to hospitals that demonstrate excellence in nursing services and patient outcomes.
USF students are prepared from day one to skilled and sophisticated consumers of research, and are encouraged by our faculty to explore concrete ways to implement findings in their daily practice.
