Overview

Nursing is a rigorous program, at University of South Carolina Upstate, but the faculty and staff are dedicated to your success. We provide the mentorship and guidance you need as you progress from introductory coursework to upper-level training. Peer-led study groups help you learn outside the classroom. They also offer a dual degree in biology if you are interested in additional science training.

Key facts

Clinical experience is a central part of our program. You’ll prepare to enter a medical setting with training in our state-of-the-art Simulation Center. Then as an upper-level student, you’ll put your training into practice at one of our regional medical centers. We also offer summer travel abroad opportunities where you can provide clinical care while experiencing life in another country.

The Mary Black College of Nursing is one of the Southeast’s most highly regarded nursing institutions. Our faculty bring a wealth of health care experience to the classroom, and will guide you through the training needed to become a nurse. You’ll also be supported with preparation for the nursing exam at the end of our program.
