Overview
Curry College, founded in 1879 in Boston and later relocated to Milton, Massachusetts, established its nursing program to meet growing demand for skilled healthcare professionals in the Greater Boston area. The School of Nursing has grown into one of the college's most respected academic units, known for its hands-on clinical training, strong pass rates on the NCLEX-RN licensure exam, and close partnerships with regional hospitals and healthcare systems.
