Clarkson College has not always been a college. Instead, we began in 1888 as a school of nursing—the first in the state of Nebraska. Over the last 125 years, we've established a new campus, expanded our program offerings and adopted a new name. All the while, we've maintained a commitment to preparing our students to be the best in various realms of health care. This commitment to excellence has and always will remain a defining quality of Clarkson College.

With eight fields and twenty majors to choose from, you have a broad range of options for making a difference—quite possibly even before you graduate.

Tuition & Financial Aid

College is a time of self-discovery, personal growth and—most certainly—fun. We're thrilled your main objective is to pursue a future in health care, but we also want you to look back on your college education and recollect all of things you experienced—lectures and textbooks aside. There are numerous ways for you to get involved at Clarkson College. Here's a peek at some of them.
