Our Story

OUR VISION:

WE CHANGE THE LIFE OF ONE TO CARE FOR THE LIVES OF MANY.

Since Galen opened its doors in 1989, nursing degree programs have been our only focus. Over the years, more than 30,000 nurses have graduated from our sixteen campuses to begin their career in nursing. Today, Galen is one of America鈥檚 largest private nursing colleges 鈥 but we still work with a one-on-one mindset, delivering all of our nursing degree programs with the individual in mind. And every day we ask ourselves, 鈥淗ow can we make this the best nursing education experience possible for each student?鈥 There are many reasons why our students choose Galen to pursue their degree in nursing, and we would be honored for you to have your own.
