Saint James College Seminary
BSN, MSN Spiritual Services Degree
Possibly the most unique nursing-related program anywhere.  
We teach on the ground, face-to-face helping!
An affordable online
educational advancement
program for licensed RN's


If you are a registered nurse, the chances
are that you entered the profession
because you want to be of real service to
humanity.

Perhaps you thought about entering the
Peace Corps, considered becoming a
missionary, or maybe you have dreamed about being part of the Doctors
Without Borders organization.  

Here is an opportunity unlike any others.  Designed by nurses for nurses,
our BSN / MSN Spiritual Services Degree may be for you!

_________________________________________________________

What the program is not:
  • This is not a clinical nursing program.  We do not believe that an
    online nursing educational program can teach clinical skills
  • It is not a BSN or MSN program that will be accepted by states for
    licensing.  A prerequisite for admission is that you must be an
    actively licensed RN.
  • It is technically not a BSN or MSN program, per se.  

What the program is:
  • This is a spiritual
    services program for
    nurses.  If you are a
    licensed nurse and if
    you want to do
    missionary or human
    services-type work here
    at home, or overseas,
    we may be for you.
  • Your spiritual nursing
    services degree may be appropriate for work in Hospice programs,
    church-sponsored hospitals, clinics, disaster relief, work in a
    needy Third World country, an American inner city, etc.
  • While graduates may sign their names with something like, "Alan
    Quigley, RN, BSN" or "Susan Smithson, RN, MSN", the actual
    degree is from our seminary and is always a spiritual degree.  
    Your diploma certificate will read something like, "Having
    successfully completed the requisite academic studies, the Board
    of Trustees hereby confer upon Carole Ann Jones, RN, the degree
    of Master of Sciences in Nursing Spiritual Services."
