The student body of the UIC College of Nursing is an energetic, inquisitive, productive community.

Students have classes and clinicals at every nursing school, but at UIC we have more than a few resources, programs and opportunities that enhance the value of your time here. And of course, the people you'll meet through your program are the greatest value-add of all.

There's so much we could say about student life at UIC Nursing, but why not let our students speak for themselves? Heading link

“My professors and clinical instructors helped me learn how to network and market myself, allowing me to take my career across the country to San Francisco. The connections I made at the UIC College of Nursing, and the things I learned, I will hold with me forever.”
