Creighton’s College of Nursing is leading the way in an ever-changing field, providing an excellent education and embracing a commitment to service. The school is growing — in Omaha, Phoenix and Grand Island — but our growth remains forever rooted in the values on which we were founded.
You can make a gift to support the College of Nursing through scholarships, faculty development or a general fund that meets the college's greatest and most immediate needs.
