St. Luke’s School of Nursing provides students with academic advice designed to assist in completing the requirements for the curriculum.
Advisement Program
The Advisement Program serves as a resource students can access for information, advice, accurate direction regarding policies, procedures, regulations and academic/professional requirements. The program facilitates positive relationships between students and professionals.
Course Registration
All students are required to register for a planned program of courses with their academic advisors. Specific times and details of registration are announced in advance of each semester.
Tutoring Services for Nursing Courses
Tutoring services for nursing courses are designed to provide students with the assistance needed to successfully complete requirements for a diploma in nursing. These services are provided by study partners (students currently enrolled in the course for which tutoring is requested), student tutors (students who have completed the course for which tutoring is requested) or graduate tutors (alumni of the school or a GN/RN employee of the hospital) with a special interest in the particular area for which tutoring is requested. The Student Services Department coordinates this service at no charge to the student.
In recognition of the complex concepts and knowledge needed by nursing students to be successful, the School of Nursing has recently initiated a formalized coaching program. This program is available at no cost to students. We expect that students who participate will improve in their theory grades, and may improve chances of passing the NCLEX-RN® licensure exam.
Coaching Topics
- Stress and anxiety test-taking management
- Identifying content area weaknesses
- Time management
- How to read a textbook
- Note-taking
- Test testing strategies
- NCLEX question review
- Study skills
Career Placement Services
Several options are available for students to clarify career goals, explore continuing education, develop job search strategies and identify favorable job opportunities.
Career resource materials and job placement information are available through the Admissions Office.
