Youngstown State University’s School Nurse Licensure Program
is designed to build upon an undergraduate education and to
prepare the school nurse to be an effective member of the professional
school community. This program requires 25S27 credit hours (semester
system) with courses taught by both the Nursing program and
the College of Education. Included in the School Nurse Licensure
Program are 300 required practicum hours (5 s.h. credit) in
a school setting under the supervision of a licensed school
nurse preceptor and a university faculty member. This practicum
may be taken in segments to accommodate the working student.
Opportunities for practicum hours to be waived (up to 2 s.h.)
are considered on an individual basis for nurses with school
nurse experience.

Students seeking admission into the School Nurse Licensure Program
must have a baccalaureate degree with course work in growth
and development, psychology, sociology, and community health.
Students must be licensed to practice nursing in Ohio, or eligible
to be licensed (graduate of an approved school of nursing).
The Ohio RN license is necessary prior to practicum placement.
