Helping you achieve your dreams 
Educating nurses for 125+ years
Your launchpad to an extraordinary career
Get ready for a nursing education that's anything but ordinary! You'll receive hands-on training in the region's top simulation center, work alongside expert faculty, and gain real-world experience through clinical placements at amazing hospitals. We're not just teaching you to be a nurse — we're helping you become a healthcare hero who's ready to make a real difference from day one.
Count on results at CU Anschutz Nursing. Our students pass the NCLEX on their first attempt at a 96.02% rate — nearly 10 points above the national average — with equally strong outcomes on graduate licensing and certification exams. That's what sets a CU Anschutz nursing degree apart.

A nurturing environment
We take the same caring approach to working with students as we do to caring for patients. Our dedicated faculty and staff are here to help you excel in your nursing journey. You’ll find a community of supportive educators and classmates working together to ensure everyone thrives in an inclusive environment.
That support follows you well past your first day of class. You'll be paired with peer mentors and success coaches, and you won't have to track down your own clinical placements. A dedicated team secures them for you, at no cost beyond your tuition. (At many other programs, students are left to find and pay for their own clinical sites.) You'll also get access to exam prep built to help you pass your licensing exams the first time. It's all in service of one goal: making sure your degree translates into a career. So when you graduate, you're ready to work in nursing immediately.

Where you belong
I wasn't interested in just surviving nursing school, I wanted to be in an environment where I could thrive.
