Nursing Technology Requirements

Technological & Internet Requirements for Students in the Department of Nursing

Students are required to take exams electronically using an iPad for all nursing courses. 

Students enrolled in any nursing course are required to procure and maintain a fully functional iPad that meets the minimum requirements for electronic testing (see iPad Minimum Requirements below). Students must also have access to the internet to download exams prior to the exam day.

iPad Minimum RequirementsOnly an iPad 5+, iPad Air 2+, iPad Mini 4+, iPad Pro can be used. No other tablets or laptops are compatible for electronic testing. 

Do not use an older iPad that cannot update to iPadOS 17 or higher. 

Below are the minimum system requirements to use Examplify (testing application) for the iPad:

  1. Operating System: iPad OS 17 or higher (Only genuine versions of iOS are supported)
  2. 500 MB MB (1 GB preferred) of free space required to commence an exam

An electronic testing orientation class is provided for newly admitted students in the Department of Nursing, 

Because students in the Department of Nursing are required to access the learning management system Canvas, develop written assignments electronically, submit assignments electronically, and have access to daily course announcements, students must have internet access outside of campus and we strongly recommend for students to have a fully functional computer/laptop.
