Admission requirements

Nursing

Bellin College nursing partnership admission requirements Admission paths for the nursing partnership between St. Norbert College and Bellin College include 15-month and junior-transfer options.

15-month option

Students wishing to pursue this option must:

Apply to St. Norbert College.
Have an ACT score of at least 23 or an SAT score of at least 1130, and a GPA of at least 3.25 when applying to SNC.
Maintain a GPA of at least a 3.0 in all classes taken at SNC.
Take 56 credits of core curriculum and foundational science courses at SNC.

Junior transfer option

Students wishing to pursue this option must:

Apply to St. Norbert College.
Maintain a GPA of at least a 3.0 in all classes taken at SNC.
Take all introductory science courses required by Bellin College and complete the core curriculum program at SNC.

Note for international students: Bellin College is not certified by SEVIS to host international students in F-1 status. Since the final portion of the program must be completed at Bellin College and students must be eligible for the entire program in order to be admitted to St. Norbert College, international students who need an F-1 visa to study in the U.S. are not eligible for admission to the nursing program.

Apply for financial aid

As a pre-nursing student, you’ll have the same tuition as any other student and be offered the same financial aid as any other major.

You should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in the fall of your senior year. This form is necessary to qualify for federal and state financial aid, including grants and loans. When it’s time to start classes in Bellin’s 15-Month and Junior Transfer options, when filling out the FAFSA, you will indicate Bellin College instead of St. Norbert College to receive the new financial aid package.

Your place to live and learn

You’ll live on campus during your time with us, unless your home is less than 35 miles from campus and you opt to commute.

Once you've completed your general education requirements at SNC, it’s up to you to find housing in the Green Bay/De Pere area for your time at Bellin.
