• $80 NursingCAS fee paid
• The completion of the supplemental application, which includes a Proof of Residency Form and Criminal Background Checks Authorization Form
  • The supplemental application is completed outside of NursingCAS. Applicants will gain access via email only once they submit their NursingCAS Application and pay the NursingCAS fee.

  • The Supplemental Admissions Application Fee is in addition to the fee paid to NursingCAS.
  • NOTE: No refunds will be issued for any application fees. Even in the event an applicant receives a discount code, or an approved fee waiver, once an applicant pays the Supplemental Application Fee, there will be no refunds permitted.
