The successful completion of the AMU BSN program includes the completion of clinical activities at established by our Clinical Agency sites. Failure to complete clinical activities would result in not meeting course and end-of-program student learning outcomes, thus rendering the student unable to complete the program, graduate, and be eligible for NCLEX-RN testing.
Nursing students must meet requirements established by the Clinical Agencies to attend clinical. The student must remain compliant with all requirements throughout the duration of the BSN program. These are the requirements (subject to change):
Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR) Immunizations
Varicella (Chicken Pox) Vaccine or blood work showing immunity to Varicella
Tetanus-Diphtheria-Acellular Pertussis (Tdap) Immunizations
