nursing degree programmes

Is nursing for you?  Do you have what it takes? Are you committedto excellence?

Admission to our nursing programmes is very selective. 

Review the admission options above to ensure you qualify, then complete the application process.    

We will be assessing you throughout, even when you collect the application form.  So, please be professional when you contact us in person, email or by telephone.  

The nursing profession requires an extremely high level of intelligence, professionalism, discipline and communication skills.  Your request for admission can be rejected at any stage along the admissions process.  This is to prepare you for the level of  professionalism we require you demonstrate at all times while you are in the nursing programme and more importantly, when you enter the profession.

Please read and comply with all documentation requirements and deadlines. 

This is a further indication of your preparedness and suitability for the nursing profession.  As a nurse you will have to pay attention to the most minute of details.  Show us you have that ability by complying with all documentation requirements and deadlines.

We will not accept incomplete documents or partial application packages.

Your application kit will outline all documents required according to which admission option you are applying under. 

Admission to the nursing programme at Southern College is very selective.  We seek to admit applicants who demonstrate a high level of professionalism, effective communication skills, and intellect.  These are just as important to us (if not, more important) than your academic grades alone.  We require you to know how to present yourself in a positive light.  We require you to display the positive qualities and characteristics associated with the nursing profession.

An interview date and time will be scheduled for you once your application package has been received and reviewed.  You will be given guidelines as to how to dress and prepare for the interview.

You will have an initial interview by the Office of Admissions with a separate more official interview by our Nursing Panel for Admissions.

We want you to do well, so please let us know what we can do to help you through the process.
