Every spring, we pause for a moment to celebrate National Nurses Week by expressing our admiration and gratitude for nurses everywhere. Nurses redefine care and empathy on a daily basis. They know that health care isn’t only about healing the body, but also extending a hand to reassure, an ear to listen, a voice to advocate and a heart to connect. Nurses make the world a better place, one patient at a time. We invite you to join us in offering a heartfelt “thank you” to all nurses, as we celebrate them and their invaluable service as the heart of health care.

"My experience at Regis in the BSN program was nothing short of excellent. The amazing professors, competitive clinical placement and vast volunteer opportunities opened many doors for me as a new grad nurse. Now, 3 years into practice I appreciate my education at Regis for the experiences it gave me and the values that I learned, and carry to this day."

"My wife Julie ended up at St. Joseph's yesterday to have an emergency appendectomy. (Went well and she's home today.) When I got to the hospital today I was wearing my Regis mask. Turns out that the staff member at the front door screening people was Joslyn Salas (a current Regis junior studying education) and two of Julie's nurses are Regis grads. Here's a photo of them in Julie's room. Their names are Lucy Williams (she is married to a Regis grad as well - baseball player at Regis and a Business major) and Amanda Peterson. They are both 2017 graduates of our nursing program."

Regis University offers loan programs and preferred tuition rates for nurses in school and in the field.
The Nurse Faculty Loan Program (NFLP) is a federally-funded program designed to increase the number of nursing students who pursue degrees as full-time faculty teaching in accredited schools of nursing. After graduation, you are eligible for up to 85% loan forgiveness for up to a 4-year commitment for teaching full-time at an accredited school of nursing within 12 months of completion of your degree.
We’re proud to partner with dozens of companies and organizations to offer their employees preferred tuition rates. This includes students who are nurses, health administrators or employed by one of the many organizations with which Regis has an active partnership. Ask your admissions counselor if your employer is included on the preferred tuition list.
We're not the only ones who love nurses. These retailers offer special discounts to nurses, EMTs and other frontline health care workers to show their appreciation for the people serving as the heart of health care.
