The University of Virginia

The University of Virginia (UVa) was founded in 1819 by Thomas Jefferson, and opened for classes in 1825. Today, the University comprises ten independent schools with approximately 20,000 students. Although a public institution, the University remains highly competitive and is consistently ranked among the very best institutions of higher education in the nation.

The University is located in Charlottesville, in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Central Virginia. The city is approximately 1 hour from Richmond and two hours from Washington DC by automobile.

The School of Nursing

Since 1901, the UVa School of Nursing has educated professional nurses for positions at every level of health care practice. Nearly a century later, we have earned a national reputation for excellence in education, research and practice, and are ranked among the top twenty-five public nursing schools in the country. The School was accredited in 2004 by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) and by the Virginia Board of Nursing.

Throughout our long and distinguished history of excellence, UVa nursing graduates have cared for patients in homes, clinics, hospitals, and even on foreign battlefields. As our country has grown, so has the nursing profession and the University of Virginia's nursing program. Today, the School of Nursing confers bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, as well as graduate-level nurse practitioner certification in primary and acute care, as well as psychiatric-mental health nursing. Preparation is also given for Clinical Nurse Specialists in acute/specialty care and in psychiatric-mental health nursing.

Here in the UVa School of Nursing, our nurse educators have designed innovative programs and curricula that prepare graduates for critical thinking and maximum employment flexibility. Our nurse researchers address health care delivery and economic implications in their studies.
