Since you will start the direct entry nursing program with a bachelor’s degree, you will have taken most of the courses you need to begin a study of health and nursing. Assuming you have met the following prerequisites, you will not need to repeat any of your undergraduate course work. You come into the direct entry program as a graduate student and are regarded as such, even when you take the undergraduate nursing classes during your first year and a half.
