Progress
Once admitted to the graduate program, graduate nursing students should maintain a 3.0 or B average in all graduate course work undertaken at Franciscan University of Steubenville. In order to progress in the program, students must:
- Maintain a 3.0 or B average in the graduate nursing core curriculum.
- Maintain a 3.0 or B average in the advanced practice nursing core curriculum.
- Retake any graduate course in which they earn less than a C (2.0) one time only.
- Maintain a 3.0 or B in each course in the specialty core curriculum. Students who achieve less than a B in a specialty course will have the opportunity to repeat the course one time. If the student fails to raise the grade to a B or better, the student is subject to dismissal. Only two courses in the specialization may be repeated.
