MSN courses are intended to be taken in sequence. Students requesting to take an MSN course out-ofsequence (i.e. taking only one course in a term) for any reason (i.e. personal, professional, unable to
secure a preceptor, etc.) will need to fill out the Out-of-Sequence Form and submit to the MSN
Associate Director of the OU School of Nursing. Filling out this form does not automatically give you
permission to take courses out of sequence. Each student’s program of study will be reviewed and
approved or denied on a case-by-case basis. Providing detailed information to us about your request
and reason is very helpful in the approval process.
This form must be submitted to the MSN Associate Director via [email protected] at least 30 days prior to
the first day of the term in which the course sequence change would occur.
