The R.N. to M.S.N. program is for registered nurses with associate degrees who want to become nurse practitioners. It focuses on advanced clinical skills, professionalism and evidence-based practice. Our integrated exam preparation courses provide dedicated study resources, leading to impressive passing rates consistently above the national average and graduate success.

National University's Quality and Safety specialization is for students pursuing their Master of Science in Nursing (MSN). The course outcomes are aligned with the American Association of Colleges (AACN) MSN Essentials (2011) and the Graduate-Level Quality and Safety Education in Nursing (QSEN) Competencies.
