Comments about MSU College of Nursing invited as part of accreditation process

Thursday Aug. 23rd, 2018

Comments about Montana State University’s College of Nursing are invited as part of the college’s regular process of seeking re-accreditation.

The College of Nursing will host an on-site evaluation of all its programs with the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, or CCNE, on Oct. 15-17 for the purpose of review and re-accreditation. Accreditation is a voluntary process that evaluates the college in relation to national standards of excellence in nursing education. As part of the evaluation process, program constituents and other interested parties may submit, in writing, comments concerning MSU College of Nursing’s programs' qualifications for accreditation. 

Third-party comments must be received by CCNE by Monday, Sept. 24. Comments may be mailed to: Commission of Collegiate Nursing Education, Attn: Third-Party Comments, 655 K Street, NW, Suite 750, Washington, DC 20001.

Alternatively, comments may be emailed to:

thirdpartycomments@ccneaccreditation.org.

The MSU College of Nursing has enjoyed continuous approval by the Montana State Board of Nursing since its founding in 1937 and has received continuous national accreditation since 1949. Currently, the college’s bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral programs are accredited by CCNE, a national accreditation agency officially recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education.
