Aloha from the President

I am pleased to share news about the forthcoming national reaccreditation of our Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) and Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) Programs. Both programs are at present fully accredited by the National League for Nursing Accreditation Commission (NLNAC). Planning for continued accreditation is an ongoing process. Each nursing program must be visited and evaluated at specified intervals to ensure continuing compliance with accreditation standards and criteria. The University’s School of Nursing expects to host an NLNAC visit this fall semester.
