Welcome to the Nursing Programs at Ramapo College!

We offer all of our students intimate attention and guidance, and have prestigious clinical partnerships that are unique in nursing education. Our clinical partner, The Valley Hospital, has been designated as a Magnet Hospital by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) which certifies hospitals as centers of excellence in nursing.
