Admission into the programs offered will start Fall 2024. Students will be admitted every August and January by the College of Diverse Education, Health, and Wellness Sciences faculty (doctoral-prepared family and psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioners, doctoral-prepared registered nurses, and public health professionals) and admissions. The College is now accepting students for all programs. Once an inquiry is submitted, students will be asked for additional information in a personalized session with personnel from the institution. The curriculums are innovative. Students will embody the ability to increase access to educational equity, health equity, and clinical services to provide services for all. These scholars (prospective students) will increase the potential for community support and better health outcomes.
The Office of Health Equity Education is supporting the college and associated activities. The Diverse Coat Society is a professional association available for students, faculty, staff, patients, healthcare professionals, community members, and organizations to join. Please see the links to the Office of Health Equity Education and the Diverse Coat Society.

SACSCOC will be the primary accrediting body for the J R Young Health Equity Institute and College of Diverse Education, Health, and Wellness Sciences. However, accreditation will be required through the nursing accreditation process using the American Association of Colleges of Nursing Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education standards for the Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Master’s of Science in Nursing, and Doctor of Nursing Practice Programs. The Public Health Nursing Program will follow the Council on Education for Public Health standards. All accreditation processes will be initial applications for the institute and college.
Each stage of the academic nursing and health career should include a firm foundation in cutting-edge, equitable clinical care and health outcomes, generating culturally competent and sensitive faculty and students. The faculty and student roles are distinct and encourage civility by employing constructive criticism and peer learning. Critical concepts of excellence in education, practice, leadership, service, and scholarship are an integral part of the process. This approach is significant to fostering the adult learning theory/andragogy in the domain of nursing and healthcare education.
Encouraging students to take part in the teaching-learning process is of utmost importance. The Health Equity Model, Constructive and Cognitive Learning Theories, and competency-based education are critical to the underpinnings of the curriculum to promote a beneficial nursing and healthcare education experience. Embracing processes such as debriefing, reflecting, and evaluating across the curriculum help students understand the outcomes of the teaching-learning process and support quality improvement within the curriculum. Various teaching-learning models such as Video Audio Reading Kinesthetic (VARK) are instrumental in addressing the learning needs of diverse student populations. An equitable academic trajectory that concentrates on the individual success of each student addresses the complexity of healthcare delivery in diverse, rural, and underserved communities to reduce health disparities and inequities and improve outcomes.
All students, faculty, and staff will be expected to follow the Principle of Integrity as outlined by The Fundamental Values of Academic Integrity.
