Introduction
this information is available as part of the BSM Application Packet from our download section.
The Bachelor program is made up of 120.75 Semester Credit Hours.
94.75 semester credit hours are automatically transferred for holding a State Midwifery License or Certification. 24 credits are granted for the additional year required to obtain the Bachelor of Science in Midwifery after licensing.
Research Project
The heart of the Bachelor’s degree is the design, conduct, and analysis of an original, quantitative research project, under the supervision of a qualified preceptor. Findings of the research project are put forth in a thesis which is submitted to the College for acceptance. Once the thesis is accepted, coursework is completed, and the clinical requirements fulfilled, the candidate is granted the Bachelor’s degree of Science in Midwifery.
Mentored Births
The BSM Candidate must complete chart review of ten births, past licensure, with her preceptor. The preceptor is not required to supervise the actual births.
Required forms and documents
Required forms and documents for application to the Bachelor of Science in Midwifery program are available for downloading from this website. It is up to the student applicant to insure that all required materials are sent to and received by the College.
Preceptors
Remember, you, the student, find and employ the preceptor. This is a voluntary relationship between you both. It is your responsibility to be sure your preceptor can provide the clinical and academic supervision required. In the case of having to use other clinical or academic preceptors to achieve your requirements, all additional preceptors must apply to and be approved by the College.
Academic Requirements
All academic requirements obtained in other settings must be from accredited programs and official transcripts must be forwarded to the College.
The College provides tracking materials so that you can document your achievements and the College approves your grades, evaluations, transcripts, research proposal and final research document, and issues your diploma.
