The Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing at Case Western Reserve University is among the nation's best. In fact, the 2025 U.S. News & World Report ranks it #9 in Bachelor of Science in Nursing programs.
What makes CWRU a national leader in undergraduate nursing education?
► You start clinicals with real patients in your first semester, and you’ll log over 1,000 hours by graduation; that’s nearly double the national average.
► You learn at the Health Education Campus of CWRU and Cleveland Clinic—one of the most technologically advanced training facilities in the nation—alongside other future healthcare professionals.
► You are surrounded by top healthcare systems, with Cleveland Clinic, University Hospitals and Louis Stokes Cleveland Veterans Affairs Medical Center all a short walk from your first-year residence hall, and MetroHealth Medical Center less than 8 miles from campus and easily accessible by public transportation.
All that practical experience, in collaboration with top healthcare professionals, in a city known for medical excellence—that’s the makings of nurses who are leaders in their fields.
