Admission into the WSU Associate Degree Nursing program is selective. A limited number of students are accepted into the program each year. This enables WSU to provide the quality clinical experience and skill set this growing field requires.

Application Process

You must apply for admission to WSU, first; then you must also apply for admission to the Associate of Science Degree in Nursing (ADN) program.

It is critical that all parts of the application process be completed and submitted. Incomplete applications will not be considered.
