Nursing

Students wishing to pursue the Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree (BSN) from the University of Saskatchewan can take the entire degree at Parkland College in Yorkton, SK.

The BSN is a four-year non direct-entry program, consisting of a pre-professional year (Year 1) of prerequisite university-level courses, followed by three years of concentrated nursing education and clinical practice opportunities. Students will develop critical thinking skills and prepare to write the national licensure examination to become a Registered Nurse (RN).

Students begin by applying to the College of Arts & Sciences to take a pre-professional first year. This first year is foundational to the nursing program and will include courses in the humanities, natural, social and health sciences. During the pre-professional year students apply to the College of Nursing to be accepted to enter Year 2 of the degree program. The application deadline is March 31 of each year. Acceptance is based on successful completion of the courses in the pre-professional year and admission is competitive.

Upon acceptance to the BSN program students will then be able to complete the rest of the degree at Parkland College and most clinical components in the Sunrise Health Region.

Career Opportunities

Most graduates of the College of Nursing become head nurses, nursing supervisors, graduate nurses and registered nurses who provide and/or co-ordinate patient care in hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, nursing agencies, rehabilitation centres and extended-care facilities.
