Applicants to UC's Neonatal Nurse Practitioner MSN program must have at least one year of full-time level II, III, or IV NICU experience. Students who have intensive care experience in Pediatric units may meet eligibility criteria based on individual practices. Those who have one year of experience at the time of admission must continue working full time and have two full years of experience before clinicals start in year two. These two years must have taken place within the previous five years of practice.

Applicants who only have Level II experience will be encouraged to transition to a Level III unit prior to clinical rotations to best support their academic experience.
