Thank you for your interest in Wilkes University Online Passan School of Nursing!

For more than 40 years, the Passan School of Nursing has prepared nurses to lead, serve and grow. That legacy shapes everything we do today. Our graduate programs offer a wide range of concentrations, and innovative curriculums at the master's and doctoral levels, each grounded in a deep commitment to the professional practice of nursing. Our faculty and staff bring dedication and creativity to their work, giving students personalized attention and courses built to challenge and inspire.

When you choose an online nursing program, three things matter most: the curriculum, the faculty and the learning environment. Our faculty are skilled teachers and practicing clinicians who care about nursing education and about you. They want to see you reach your full potential, and every part of our academic programming is designed to help you succeed.

Healthcare is changing quickly, and nurses are ready to meet that moment. Our graduates work as advanced practice nurses who influence change and shape the future of the profession. Healthcare reform, new technology, an aging population and the rise of chronic illness all point to the same need: well-educated, clinically competent providers. Wilkes nurses answer that call every day, moving the profession forward from bedside practice to public policy.

We take pride in our students and graduates who carry their experiences from this school out into the world. I hope you will join us and become part of our nursing family.

To your success,

Emily Havrilla
Interim Chief Nurse Administrator
Passan School of Nursing, Wilkes University

Out-of-State Students

Our online nursing degree programs prepare graduates to take the national board certification exam appropriate to their degree or chosen NP concentration. Please see our full list of state authorizations to determine whether our program fulfills requirements for licensure in your home state. Wilkes University will not be able to place any students who move to an unauthorized state before or during the program and this may impact your ability to continue with the program.
