BSN for Freshmen
CHICAGO CAMPUS ONLY
The UIC College of Nursing now accepts students directly to our program in Chicago as freshmen.
UIC Nursing is thrilled to be welcoming applicants straight from high school after decades of accepting undergraduates only as transfer students at the junior level.
We use a holistic approach when reviewing each application—a careful and individualized review of each applicant’s credentials. Consideration is given to high school GPA and the strength of the high school schedule and personal statements. Letters of recommendation, extracurricular activities or any other supporting documents are also strongly considered in the review process.
There is no minimum to apply; however, the most successful candidates will have an ACT composite score of 28 (optional) or SAT score of 1310 or higher (optional) and an unweighted high GPA of 3.5 or above.
