Samford University, in Homewood, Alabama, is a private, four-year Christian university with nursing programs offered through the Moffett & Sanders School of Nursing. Its pathways include undergraduate BSN study and graduate nursing options, with learning delivered through campus-based coursework and some online or hybrid formats depending on the track.
Students can expect to build core skills in patient assessment, critical thinking, communication, evidence-based practice, leadership, and compassionate care. The prelicensure BSN includes supervised clinical experiences and prepares graduates for the NCLEX-RN licensure exam. Samford is known for its values-based education, smaller class experience, and strong clinical preparation. Compared with many nearby programs, it offers a more personal university setting while still giving students access to the Birmingham healthcare community and a broad range of practice sites.

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.
