UVA School Of Nursing

Nestled at the center of one of the nation’s top universities, and Virginia’s only nursing school consistently ranked among the nation’s top 15, UVA School of Nursing is a destination for nurses from every background driven by a common passion: to be exceptional caregivers, competent collaborators, and - always - fiercely compassionate advocates for their patients. Academic home to ten key regional and national nursing and healthcare organization presidents, our accessible professors drive knowledge, policy, and scholarship in boardrooms, classrooms, and labs while also nurturing a tight-knit community that cares for students both personally and professionally. Lauded for our interprofessional learning, inclusivity, our healthy work and learning environment and our emphasis on the cultivation of compassion and clinician resilience, UVA Nursing is home to the one-of-a-kind Compassionate Care Initiative that offers drop-in workshops, retreats, and curricular threads for students, faculty, staff and community members that promote professional longevity and well-being. With our wide variety of undergraduate and graduate programs, including our #1-in-the-nation ranked Clinical Nurse Leader program (US News 2021), we nurture resilient nurse leaders who become the change they wish to see in the world. Being at the top of our field means we can get you to the top of yours. What do YOU want to be known for?
