The GSN graduate, Navy LCDR Julie Conrardy, was drawn to USU because of the singular opportunities available to students at the University. The 2009 alumna of the Perioperative Clinical Nurse Specialist program is now completing a rotation in San Diego, California. She hopes to one day augment the lessons of USU with her nursing experience to mentor young health professionals embarking on new careers.
Applying to the GSN
The USU Graduate School of Nursing admits advanced practice nurses in the military and other federal services.
We select applicants based on their academic achievements and experiences in the fields of health care. Personal statements and letters of recommendation are also carefully weighed.
A diverse range of high-achieving scholars are admitted into the GSN's master's and doctoral programs. Though varied, our learning community is unified by the common goal of advancing military and public health medicine.
It is this sense of shared purpose and the University's bold mission to care for those in harm's way, that makes the GSN a very special place.
