Carlow maintains a rich history of innovations in nursing education since the founding of the School of Nursing in 1953. This tradition continues today as the School of Nursing consistently responds to community needs. In 1981, the pioneering weekend R.N.-B.S.N. program began, allowing self-motivated working R.N.s to come to campus eight times over a semester to facilitate a balance between school, work, and personal responsibilities. This program was followed by the Carlow Accelerated Program (CAP) for R.N. students wanting an accelerated evening program.
Today, Carlow offers programs such as these in Greensburg and Cranberry, as well as at our main campus in Oakland, for R.N.-B.S.N. and graduate nursing students. Our undergraduate traditional B.S.N. program is also a strong presence on our Oakland campus. All of our programs have been continuously accredited since 1961, first by the National League of Nursing and in 1988 by the Commissions on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE). In December 2004 CCNE granted 10 more years accreditation to the School of Nursing. We look forward to creating additional programs as we continue to meet the needs of nursing and the public.
