Assessment
The School of Nursing participates in an assessment process that compares Edgewood nursing students with other nursing students across the country using a standardized exam. The computerized
examinations, completed at regular intervals throughout the curriculum, provide benchmarks for student performance in critical thinking, nursing process, and therapeutic communication. The results
are useful in preparing students to take the national licensing examination after graduation. An additional fee for the assessments is added to the tuition bill for each nursing theory course.
Student abilities in meeting other program objectives are evaluated throughout the program of study.
