School of Nursing

Founded in 1935, the Saint Xavier University School of Nursing offered the first baccalaureate nursing program to receive accreditation in the State of Illinois. As one of the first baccalaureate nursing programs in the State of Illinois, over 3,500 students have graduated during the past 70 years. Many School of Nursing graduates hold key positions, both nationally and internationally, in nursing practice, education, administration, and research. Both baccalaureate and master's degree programs at Saint Xavier University are currently accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE). The School of Nursing has had continuous accreditation of its programs.

The goals of the program are to:

1. Develop the liberally educated professional nurse, who is prepared to practice in a variety of settings,
2. provide a foundation for personal and professional development, and
3. provide a foundation for graduate study in nursing.
