Benefits Of The Academy

Nursing students participating in the academy will gain real-world, hands-on experience to become practice ready upon graduation. Additionally, nursing students will have access to full-time tuition assistance, lowering or eliminating out-of-pocket tuition costs, allowing them to focus on their studies and experience. Wright State nursing students must join the Premier Health team in entry-level part-time position such as safety companion, home health aid, and patient care technician.

Program Benefits

  • Students in the Wright State Nursing Academy are eligible for up to $8,000 annually in tuition assistance from Premier Health.
  • When combined with Wright State University's merit and need-based scholarship programs along with federal and state financial aid, earning a degree in nursing becomes even more affordable.
  • Participants will gain hands-on experience to help them be practice-ready upon graduation.
  • Participants will have access to full-time employment at Premier Health after graduation.

Eligibility Requirements

  • Participants must work part-time at Premier Health (24 hours per pay period) while attending Wright State University full-time as a nursing student (12 credit hours minimum)
  • Participants must complete courses to receive tuition assistance from Premier Health
  • Participants must be financially responsible for payment of any WSU educational fees not attributable to a completed course
  • Participants must qualify for in-state tuition
  • Participants must satisfy all Premier Health pre-employment requirements

To remain eligible for the program, participating nursing students must maintain good standing with employment at Premier Health.

  • This position is not eligible for sponsorship for an employment visa, including H-1B and permanent residence. Applicants must be authorized to work in the U.S. without current or future employer-sponsorship needs.
