Out-of-state applicants to any of our distance-accessible programs should become familiar with their state’s regulations governing distance accessible programs. Prospective students who plan to conduct Samford’s distance education/clinical in a state other than Alabama should contact their state’s Board of Nursing and Department of Education for specific rules and regulations pertaining to students enrolled in out-of-state programs. Students residing in states with strict rules and regulations for distance education may not be eligible to receive an offer of admission. Please refer to 91果冻 Consumer Information, Licensure and Certification Disclosure for additional information.

Please direct questions to the Director of Graduate Student Services, Mrs. Allyson Maddox amaddox@samford.edu.
