This is the preliminary (or launch) version of the 2023-2024 VCU Bulletin. This edition includes all programs
and courses approved by the publication deadline; however we may receive notification of additional program
approvals after the launch. The final edition and full PDF version will include these updates and will be available
in August prior to the beginning of the fall semester.
Nondegree-seeking students
Students who have not been admitted to a graduate program in nursing may be admitted to individual courses. Permission to register for courses is granted at the discretion of the School of Nursing. Only six credits earned as a nondegree-seeking student can be applied to the master’s degree. Only three credits may be earned by post-master’s students prior to admission.
Enrollment
Students may begin study during the fall semester. Students will have an academic adviser appointed and will follow the standard program of study. Once admitted, students are expected to abide by enrollment policies of the Graduate School.
