Bethel’s nursing program requires additional acceptance into the nursing major once you’re a student.

If you plan to complete a degree in nursing, you will be enrolled as a pre-nursing student with the designation of PRN. Once you’ve met the minimum criteria for admission to nursing, submitted your application, and been formally admitted to the nursing program, you will become a nursing major with the designation NUR.
