The Pre-Nursing advising cohort focuses on the Registered Nurse (RN) career path. Students interested in the CNA career path should contact the Lifelong Learning Center.

Students have two choices when pursing an RN degree: Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) (2 year degree) and Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) (4 year degree).  UM does not have a nursing degree program.  Pre-Nursing students can complete the pre-requisites for either an ASN or BSN at UM but will have to transfer to a school that has a RN program.  ASN students typically transfer to Missoula College. BSN students typically transfer to Montana Tech or Montana State University.
