GW Nursing has solid top-30 showing in 2023 U.S. News rankings, with six specialty tracks landing in top 10

For the second year in a row, the George Washington University School of Nursing earned top-30 rankings in the U.S. News & World Report’s Best Master’s Programs (#27) and Best DNP Programs (#30).

These solid rankings, paired with the school’s top 10 rankings in many specialty areas, are a testament to GW’s growing reputation as a premier destination for nurses looking to advance their careers and excel in administration and management (MSN #3, DNP #4), family nurse practitioner (MSN #10, DNP #13), adult-gerontology primary care (MSN #6, DNP #10), and adult-gerontology acute care (DNP #9). This is the first year that U.S. News & World Report has ranked many of these specialty areas, making GW Nursing’s high rankings particularly notable.

The fall e-issue of GW Nursing magazine delves into these issues and more and illustrates some of the amazing work being done by the GW Nursing community. Enjoy this issue and, as always, stay safe and healthy.
