Available Online Prerequisite Courses

These online courses fulfill many of the most common prerequisite requirements for nursing and other healthcare degree programs, including prerequisite requirements for entry into the University of Rochester's Accelerated Bachelor's in Nursing (ABSN) and Master's Direct Entry into Nursing Practice programs.

If you plan to apply these courses toward a degree program outside the University of Rochester, we encourage you to confirm transfer eligibility with your college or university before registering. While University of Rochester School of Nursing courses are generally transferable, each institution determines whether transfer credit will be accepted.
