Early Entry Program

Early entry programs at the University of Mississippi School of Nursing allow eligible students to reserve a spot in a competitive program - either the Traditional BSN program, the RN-MSN program or the DNP program - without the stress of competing against hundreds of applicants.

These early entry routes provide a seamless transition from high school, an associate-degree program or a master's program to higher education.

• Freshman Early Entry - The School of Nursing Freshman Early Entry program provides an entry into the Traditional BSN program as a college freshman, rather than as a junior.
• RN-MSN Early Entry - The RN-MSN Early Entry program provides eligible first-year Hinds Community College and Northwest Mississippi Community College associate-degree nursing students with an opportunity to reserve a spot in the RN-MSN program during their first-year of ADN coursework, rather than after graduation.
