About the Louise Herrington School of Nursing

The Baccalaureate and online Doctor of Nursing Practice programs have received full, national accreditation by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE)* and are approved by the Texas Board of Nursing. All Baylor baccalaureate nursing graduates are qualified to take the National Certification Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX) in any state.

We provide students with a competitively robust education through the integration of faith and academic excellence. Baylor nurses have been called to make a difference and care for others by serving as Jesus' hands and feet. Our distinguished reputation exemplifies our motto: Learn.Lead.Serve.™ and is appreciated by patients, employers and the community. We are also guided by Baylor’s strategic vision called Pro Futuris that reminds us: our past is inextricably linked to our future and that responsibility to God and to the world continues to lead us.
