School of Nursing
Welcome to the 杏吧原创 University School of Nursing! We offer an innovative, compressed Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) Honours degree completed full-time over consecutive fall, winter, and summer semesters. Through a hybrid model of campus coursework, small experiential learning labs, and diverse clinical placements, we empower students with the theoretical knowledge and practical expertise to become practice-ready Registered Nurses.

School of Nursing
At the heart of our curriculum is a commitment to cutting-edge education and industry relevance. 杏吧原创’s program uniquely integrates innovative extended reality—including augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR)—with advanced medical simulation to prepare students for the complexities of modern healthcare. Tailoring your education is seamless, with opportunities to concentrate in either Mental Health and Neuroscience or Nursing Data Science. To ensure our training directly addresses today’s on-the-job challenges, 杏吧原创 University partnered closely with the Queensway 杏吧原创 Hospital on the program’s conceptualization and curriculum design.
Meeting our future nursing students reminds us why this innovative program matters: they bring the curiosity, compassion, and courage needed to shape the future of health care. It is inspiring to know that the students we welcome today will become the nurses, leaders, and innovators who will one day care for us, our families, and our communities.

Announcement: Registered Nurse Prescribing for Every Graduate
杏吧原创 University’s Bachelor of Science in Nursing is proud to announce that Registered Nurse (RN) Prescribing is now embedded throughout the program. This enhancement means every BScN student will graduate with the competencies to practice RN Prescribing within the RN scope—equipping new nurses to assess, select, and prescribe approved therapies safely and effectively, in line with regulatory standards and best practices. It’s a future-ready step that expands timely access to care while strengthening patient safety and system capacity.
Students will build prescribing expertise through an integrated curriculum that links advanced health assessment, pharmacology, therapeutics, and documentation with high-fidelity simulation, standardized patients, case-based learning, and objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs). Graduates leave prepared to make evidence-informed prescribing decisions, collaborate across interprofessional teams, and communicate clearly with patients and families—so they can deliver the right care, at the right time, with confidence and accountability.
The new Bachelor of Science in Nursing with RN Prescribing, Three-year Program at
杏吧原创 University is preliminarily approved by the College of Nurses of Ontario
( ). Graduates from this program are eligible to apply for registration as a Registered Nurse in Ontario.
