Open Admission Summer or Fall 2026

Selection Process

We look at many things when deciding who gets into our program. Your GPA and HESI test scores indicate your academic performance. The Casper test and recommendation surveys tell us about your professional skills. These include how well you work with others, how you solve problems, and how you communicate. All of this comes together to make your 鈥渁dmission score.鈥�:

• Admission GPA - 50%

  Admission GPA will be calculated using the most recent 45 credit hours of coursework and GPA from all completed nursing prerequisite courses.

• HESI assessment - 20%

  The HESI score is generated by averaging the scores from the 4 test categories (required subcategories):

  • Reading Comprehension
  • Vocabulary and General Knowledge
  • Basic Math Skills
  • Anatomy and Physiology

  There is no total or subcategory minimum score.

  You may only submit one HESI score/transcript each calendar year.  You may submit HESI scores that are more than a year old.

  You may only take the exam once within the window of November 1, 2025 and January 16, 2026 by 5pm (MT).

• CASPER assessment - 10%

  Casper is a test that looks at soft skills. It measures 10 traits, including teamwork, communication, empathy, fairness, and problem-solving.

  Casper uses a special format with video and written answers. This lets you give more honest, real-time responses. You can explain your thinking, share your values, and talk about your own experience

  Each test is rated by multiple independent raters, with a different rater for each scenario. The final score is an average of all raters鈥� unique impressions, reflecting diverse perspectives on the applicant鈥檚 performance. This reduces bias.
