Overview
The Master of Science, Applied (M.Sc.A.) in Nursing at McGill University's Ingram School of Nursing, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, is a non-thesis program for students holding a general undergraduate degree with no prior nursing preparation. It runs three years across two consecutive phases: a one-year Qualifying Year followed by two years of full-time graduate-level nursing study. Students may choose between two concentrations: Direct Entry to Advanced Practice Nursing (DE-APN) or Global Health (GHDE). The curriculum combines entry-to-practice clinical preparation with graduate coursework in advanced nursing practice, research, and knowledge translation. Admission requires an eligible bachelor's degree with a minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4.0, plus 40 credits of specific prerequisites completed within the last five years with a minimum GPA of 3.0. The program also requires French-language and English-language proficiency. Applicants apply at the start of the Winter term of the Qualifying Year. The program admits students in the Fall term.
