****Disclaimer****
While the general overview in the video below remains accurate, the 6–12 month DN Bridge completion estimate applies only to graduates of specific U.S.–based institutions whose programs closely align with NCNMU’s licensure-track curriculum. Requirements for international DN programs vary significantly. All prospective DN Bridge applicants must review the DN Policy for Graduates of Other DN Programs (available on this page and the International Students page) to understand whether their institution is recognized, the exact NCNMU coursework and clinical requirements expected for their pathway.

NCNMU evaluates each institution individually and bridge timelines differ accordingly.
