The School of Nursing contains several large classrooms, a physical assessment/examination room, and a student computer lab.

Recently, the computers and network printers were upgraded in the student computer lab making it a modern, up-to-date resource for student use 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Students are provided magnetic access cards to the School.
