A new partnership between the George Washington University School of Nursing and MedStar Washington Hospital Center, named Washington Squared (W2), will offer scholarship benefits and the promise of employment to GW’s accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing students during the next six years.
The partnership is called “Washington Squared” because it brings together the rigor of the GW School of Nursing academic program and the robust clinical experience of the Hospital Center.
Under the agreement, students in the W2 cohort will earn their B.S.N. at GW’s School of Nursing, fulfill their clinical rotations at the Hospital Center and are guaranteed employment at the Hospital Center upon successful W2 completion. Students in the program will also receive a 50 percent tuition scholarship. Read the full story...
