Post-Master’s Nursing Certification is available for persons with a master’s degree in Nursing who wish to be eligible to take the certification examinations in an advanced practice area for which they were not prepared in their original program. The applicable Program/Concentration Director will review the applicant’s previous academic preparation and/or competency in required courses in order to award transfer credit. Any deficiencies will be met by enrollment in required courses. An individualized degree plan will be developed after review of the official transcripts . No degree is awarded; however, awarding of the certificate will be noted on the official transcripts from UTEP.
