Improving lives through nursing
We transform health through exceptional care, science, learning, and influence and are a learning community rooted in compassion and respect that values trust, equity, excellence, collaboration, and knowledge.
Let us help you find your fit.
BETH QUATRARA: What sets UVA's school of nursing apart is the community, and I cannot say that enough. We really care about you-- you as the person, you as the individual. You are not part of a cohort. You are not part of a class. You have the opportunity to work one on one with faculty, one on one with your advisor, and that's really what sets us apart, is that we are uniquely focused on you.
KATIE KUEKES-BAKER (CNL STUDENT): It's an ever-changing world that we live in. Health care is an ever-changing industry, and the program is ever changing as well. It's very flexible, with new research and new experiences that the school finds for us to do as students. And the different perspectives that are brought in by the faculty and by different staff also make it a very dynamic and very integrated program.
LINDSEY GRIZZARD BRAUN (DNP STUDENT): They want you to succeed just as much as you want to succeed. And not only that, but they want you to have a good work-life balance.
JULIA PHILLIPS (MSN STUDENT): We learn together, and we truly work through hard and difficult clinical situations together. And I think that that makes this program really, really special.
MAUREEN DESENA (POST MASTER"S DNP STUDENT): Everywhere I turn, it's just-- they're just so inclusive.
KATIE HALL (PHD STUDENT): The School of Nursing accepts you as you are, helps you build towards your strengths and towards your passions.
