MS in Nursing—Direct Entry: Boston
Get to know the MS in Nursing (Direct Entry) program
The Direct Entry Nursing Program at Northeastern University empowers students to use existing work experience and education to launch their careers. It begins with 16 months of nursing-specific courses to acquire your Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and prepare you to sit for the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX-RN). That’s followed by 1–2 years of practice, and then completion of your education as an advanced practice nurse with a master's degree.
Are you ready to learn more about how you can be a part of the future of nursing? Join us for a virtual information session where you’ll meet our program team, learn more about academics and the student experience, and ask any questions you may have about the program and the application process.
