Radford University is a public, four-year university in Radford, Virginia, with nursing education offered on the main campus and at Radford University Carilion in Roanoke. Its programs include the traditional BSN, RN-to-BSN, and graduate options such as MSN and DNP study, delivered through campus, online, and hybrid formats depending on the track.
Students build skills in health assessment, pharmacology, patient-centered care, evidence-based practice, leadership, communication, and community health. Learning is reinforced through skills labs, simulation, and supervised clinical rotations in regional healthcare settings. The BSN pathway is designed to prepare graduates for the NCLEX-RN licensure exam, and the school is known for its CCNE-accredited nursing education and close clinical ties to nearby healthcare systems. Compared with larger programs in the region, Radford offers a more personal setting while still giving students broad clinical exposure.

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.
