Leading the way
Creighton’s College of Nursing has a reputation for leading the way of an ever-changing field, providing an excellent education and embracing a commitment to service.
As our students pursue spiritually fulfilling careers in a world direly in need of nurses, much will change but never this: a Creighton nurse sees and cares for every patient as a whole person.

Now serving students and communities from three different campuses, the College of Nursing is seeing tremendous growth and success.

FOR AND WITH OTHERS
“I love it at Creighton. People care about each other here, and they teach you how to care for others the best way you can.
“The support of donors makes the Creighton experience possible — for me and for thousands of other students. Without my scholarship aid, I don’t think I’d be at Creighton. It eases the stress on my family and makes this possible. The least I can do, in return, is work hard and do my best.”
— Robyn Acob, College of Nursing
