Getting involved
It’s no secret that Lumberjacks make great nurses. Our nursing students have access to world-class facilities and simulation labs, and they attend classes taught by experienced nursing professionals.
But that’s not the only thing that makes our nursing program stand out: As a nursing student at SFA, you’ll have the opportunity to join a variety of student organizations that will help you build connections, learn more about career paths in nursing, attend conferences and give back to your community.
