ADVISING NOTES PARTICULARLY
PERTINENT FOR JMU NURSING MAJORS:
We strongly encourage you to contact the JMU
nursing department early in your academic career at BRCC. That way you can
work with JMU faculty to ensure your smooth transition to the program.
Nursing programs are competitive, so make sure you research admission
requirements to the program. Acceptance to JMU does not guarantee acceptance
to the nursing program. Dr. Merle E. Mast is the contact person for the
James Madison University Department of Nursing. She can be reached by
calling (540) 568-6314 or by e-mail at
mastme@jmu.edu.
