All students in the major complete the same core course work in addition to the student’s selected concentration. Students must earn a “B”, or better, in all APN Department courses (any course that starts with APN), in order to progress in any advanced practice nursing concentration.  The Department faculty has determined that the minimum course percent score for a “B” is 83%.
