Other requirements to be considered for admission to the RN to BSN Pathway:

• Completed application by set deadline date

• All nursing students must achieve a final course grade of C (73%) in each nursing course. Failure to achieve a grade of C or better in a nursing course will prevent the student from continuing to the next sequential nursing course.
• Two nursing courses with deficient grades (final course grade of C-, D+, D, or F) in the Nursing program will lead to final dismissal from the Nursing program, but not the university.
• Nursing students are expected to maintain a minimum HPU GPA of 2.75 and NUR GPA of 2.75 throughout their course of study.
• Nursing clinical courses require that students travel for clinical experiences throughout Oahu. Each student must have a reliable source of transportation to clinical sites.
• If an “Unacceptable Practice” investigation is in progress and/or if a student receives an “Unacceptable Practice” citation in a nursing (NUR) course, the student may not withdraw from the course. Students will need to have a clearance (signature on the withdrawal form) from the dean of Nursing or designee in order to withdraw from nursing (NUR) courses.
• Admission to the program requires that students meet specific clinical health requirements. See the Health Requirements webpage for more details.
