Liberty University, based in Lynchburg, Virginia, is a private, four-year Christian university with nursing programs offered on campus and online. Its traditional Bachelor of Science in Nursing is typically a 120-credit program that combines classroom study, lab practice, and supervised clinical experience in regional health care settings. Students build core skills in health assessment, pharmacology, pathophysiology, evidence-based practice, patient safety, communication, leadership, and community health, with an emphasis on ethical, faith-informed care. The prelicensure BSN is designed to prepare graduates for the NCLEX-RN exam, while completion and graduate pathways support working nurses seeking advancement. Liberty’s School of Nursing is approved by the Virginia Board of Nursing and accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, giving the program added credibility. Compared with nearby Virginia nursing programs at larger public universities, Liberty offers a more mission-driven environment and broader online flexibility, though clinical requirements still anchor the hands-on training.

Programs
A BSN is a 4-year university RN degree, widely preferred by employers and required for many advanced roles, whose graduates are eligible to take the NCLEX-RN.
An MSN is a 2–3 year graduate degree that prepares RNs for advanced practice, leadership, and specialized roles such as nurse practitioner or nurse educator.
A DNP is the highest clinical nursing degree, taking 2–4 years, preparing nurses for advanced practice, executive leadership, and policy roles—distinct from the research-focused PhD.
A post-graduate APRN certificate is a 12–24 month credential that lets MSN-prepared nurses add or change an advanced practice specialty without earning a second degree.
