Graduate Certificate programs of study are available to students who have completed, or are currently
enrolled in, a graduate degree. We offer a number of options based on the graduate degree program you have
completed. The most common options are formalized as Graduate Certificate Programs in Advanced Practice
Nursing (GCPAPN).
A minimum of 15 credits (9 graded) are required for completion of all GCPAPN options. Some elective courses
in a certificate program may be applied to both the certificate and a graduate degree at the University
of Washington. A GCPAPN will be awarded only to students who a) have previously earned a masters degree or
higher, or b) are being awarded a UW graduate degree in the same quarter as the GCPAPN.
Admissions criteria vary slightly based on the focus of the certificate. All certificate programs require:
- completion or concurrent enrollment in a graduate degree
- a minimum GPA of 3.0 in the last 90 quarter (60 semester) credits
- some certificate programs require an RN license
While many of these programs are available to all graduate students (both nursing and
non-RN), some are only available to those who have completed a DNP degree program.
