About the Yarmouth Campus
Housed in the Yarmouth Regional Hospital, our Yarmouth campus offers three-year (Direct Entry) and two-year (Advanced Standing) Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) programs.
With a population of 7,000, Yarmouth is the largest town in Southwestern Nova Scotia and is a financial, business, and education hub for surrounding communities. It’s also home to some of the most beautiful beaches and scenery in the province, including the famous Cape Forchu lighthouse.
