School of Nursing Undergraduate Programs
The Guaranteed Placement Program for High School Seniors is a benefit given to high school students who start their college career at Wichita State University.
The traditional BSN program prepares students for entry-level professional nursing positions in a variety of healthcare settings and provides a foundation for graduate study in nursing.
This unique dual degree program will give students the opportunity to earn both a Bachelor of Science (BS) or Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree from Kansas State University, and a Bachelor of Science degree in nursing (BSN) from Wichita State University.
The RN to BSN program offers a registered nurse, who has received an associate’s degree in nursing and meets the admission criteria, an advanced placement seeking a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree.
Admissions to the Accelerated BSN program will be suspended starting with the 2025–26 academic year due to low enrollment.
