School of Nursing 2020 - 2021 Catalog


The School of Nursing Catalog, an official publication of Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC), contains policies, regulations, procedures, programs, courses, schedules and fees in effect when the Catalog is posted on the website. A student is expected to complete the degree requirements set forth in the School of Nursing Catalog in effect at the time the student enters the program. Students readmitted to the TTUHSC School of Nursing are expected to complete the degree requirements set forth in the Catalog that is current at the time of readmission. Only with the specified approval of the appropriate Associate Dean/Department Chair may a different Catalog be selected. In no case, may a student complete the requirements set forth in a catalog more than seven years old. The Catalog is published at least biennially and the provisions are applicable during the stated school year. Other conditions of graduation and the curriculum program are outlined in detail in the School of Nursing Student Handbook.

The provisions of the Catalog do not constitute a contract, expressed or implied, between any applicant or student and faculty member in the TTUHSC School of Nursing. The TTUHSC School of Nursing reserves the right to withdraw courses at any time, change fees, calendars, curricula, graduation procedures, and any other requirement affecting students. Changes become effective when the proper authorities determine the application to both prospective students and to the students already enrolled.

TTUHSC is open to all persons, regardless of race, color, religion, disability, sex, national origin, or sexual orientation, who are eligible for admission as students. TTUHSC is an Equal Opportunity Institution and no applicant or student will be discriminated against because of race, creed, religion, disability, gender, national origin, or sexual orientation during the course of education at this institution.
