One of the three courses may be waived, at the program director's discretion if the student has already completed a college-level health assessment or an appropriate continuing education course.

- A current New Jersey RN license and one year of work experience as a registered professional nurse. For APN tracks one year of experience in the enrolled specialty track is required before beginning the clinical specialty practicum.
- A personal statement (one to two pages) outlining professional goals.
- Two letters of recommendation.
- A college-level course in health assessment. (An appropriate continuing education course may be substituted at the program director’s discretion.) This requirement does not apply to the Nursing Administration concentration.
