The Penn Experience
The University of Pennsylvania offers the only undergraduate Ivy League nursing education and is recognized world-wide for its standards of academic excellence. A nationally respected faculty, student involvement in cutting-edge research, the latest advances in virtual learning, and clinical experiences in the nation's top hospitals combine to create an educational atmosphere like no other. With extensive options for joint degree programs, minors, and submatriculation into graduate programs, a Penn Nursing degree provides variety, flexibility, and opportunity. Here, you will learn firsthand about the incredible variety of nursing careers. Through Penn's acclaimed study abroad program, you will have a chance to experience nursing in other cultures. It is the
Penn Nursing experience that enables 97 percent of our graduating seniors to pass their licensing exam, and it is no surprise that many typically receive multiple offers from the nation's top hospitals, some with signing bonuses.
As a small school within a world-class university, Penn Nursing is the best of both worlds -- an intimate place where your professors will know you well, and an exciting, big-city campus where resources are virtually limitless. You'll have a wealth of opportunities to make a difference, not only on campus, but by reaching out to the surrounding community as well.
