Graduate Nursing Program Overview

Michigan State University is a public institution where all of the graduate-level, online nursing classes are recorded and posted online, so that students can access lecture material at their own convenience. One hundred percent of students are already employed when they first enroll, and Michigan State University requires applicants to have professional nursing practice experience, after receipt of their nursing licenses, to be admitted. The admissions deadline for these programs is February 1.
