I have been in the nursing department for a BSN and the only thing I can say is that I am glad I chose this school. At Waynesburg they will teach you the med surg classes, Pathophysiology, pharma etc. But the difference is that they make you think.
If you want to be a smart nurse who will keep learning and who will be pushed to be the best nurse as possible, pick Waynesburg.
I am glad I did. I work as a nurse now and I have been making great decisions in my shifts - picking up on cues when patients needed higher level of care, emergent interventions etc. That is thanks to Waynesburg!
Nursing is not accomplishing tasks and carrying orders, it is about thinking critically.
Let these smart teachers give you the best foundations you can get and need and you will be glad you did

I enjoy the friendly environment. The professors care about each individual in their class. The staff at the university shows their passion for their jobs by caring for the students. The community on campus is welcoming towards every individual. The students are friendly and encouraging to others. If I could change anything about Waynesburg University, I would place a stronger focus on maintaining a interactive dorm life experience.
Waynesburg has a strong focus on its business and STEM programs- not so much humanities. Save for the Bible & Ministry Studies area. It is a small community on a hill, and all of your professors will know your name! I do wish more effort was put into helping the arts and humanities thrive.
