Why the University of Akron Wayne Campus?
The University of Akron Wayne Campus offers a smaller, community-focused learning environment with personalized academic support, well suited for students pursuing nursing education. You'll find small class sizes with faculty who are invested in your success.
Students progress through the program as part of a dedicated cohort, fostering connection, accountability, and peer support. The Wayne Campus provides a consistent, focused academic setting designed to support student success, with a dedicated nursing program and new lab space.
How the Program Works
Participants will be hired into Career Launch Student (PRN) positions and must meet all Akron Children's requirements for hire.
After submitting your Career Launch application, candidates must also complete an application to the University of Akron.
How Do I Qualify?
We seek candidates who align with Akron Children's core promises:
To treat every child as we would our own
To treat others as they would like to be treated
To turn no child away
Candidates should demonstrate motivation, professionalism, strong communication skills, and teamwork. All candidates must apply to the college to be considered.
Important: Final selection is contingent upon full acceptance to the University of Akron and the Associates Degree of Nursing Program. Admission requirements and curriculum details for the ADN program are available on the university's website.
