The Part Time BSc (Nursing Practice) programme consists of 120 units. It permits exemption of a separated set of 40 units granted to students who have completed a polytechnic nursing diploma from Singapore (comprising 20 units for Unrestricted Elective Courses and 20 units for Programme Requirements). The APCs will be granted only for the diploma completed within the last 7 years prior to the date of admission to NUS. If the student had used his/her Diploma in Nursing from NYP or NP to count towards the award of a non-Nursing degree prior to applying for this part-time Nursing degree, he/she may not be granted APCs. The programme, ultimately after the APC, stands at 80 units.

Students are not required to submit any application as the APCs will be updated in students’ academic records within first two weeks of the first semester of study.
