Nursing@Georgetown offers Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) programs online that prepare registered nurses for a range of leadership roles in the health care community. We offer two entry points: the BSN to DNP, designed for RNs with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, and the Post-Master’s DNP, designed for APRNs or nurses employed in advanced nursing roles with a master’s degree.
Nursing@Georgetown offers an online Post-Graduate Certificate program that prepares students for certification in one of four APRN specializations: FNP, AG-ACNP, NM, or WHNP. This post-doctoral/post-master’s certificate is designed for applicants who hold a current registered nurse (RN) license and have earned either (1) a Master of Science degree in Nursing from a CCNE- or ACEN-accredited program, or (2) a doctoral degree (DNAP, DNP, or PhD).

Georgetown University School of Nursing & Health Studies (NHS) is a values-based organization that educates the health workforce and advances practice, research, and scholarship — with a strong focus on reducing health disparities and promoting health equity.
Founded in 1903 to educate a nursing workforce for the Washington, D.C., area, the school has since graduated approximately 10,000 nurses who use their undergraduate and advanced degrees to improve health across the country and around the world. Additionally, it has broadened its degree programs to reflect the diversity of academic disciplines within the health sector.
While the school has evolved, it remains committed to Catholic, Jesuit values, such as educating women and men for the benefit of others and cura personalis, or care for the whole person: mind, body, and spirit.
The Baccalaureate Degree in Nursing, Master’s Degree in Nursing, Doctor of Nursing Practice and post-graduate APRN certificate program at Georgetown University are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education.
