BSN/MSN/DNP · Lynchburg, VA
Liberty University — School of Nursing (Pre-Licensure BSN, Accel BSN, RN-to-BSN, MSN, DNP)
Liberty Nursing (BSN/MSN/DNP) requires Tuberculosis (TB), MMR, Varicella, Hepatitis B, Tdap / Td, and Influenza. Practiclear may help document 4 of these in a single Virginia draw (TB Screening Documentation, MMR Immunity Profile, Varicella IgG, Hep B Surface Antibody) — see matched products below. Documents typically upload via CastleBranch (referenced explicitly in MSN/DNP handbooks for compliance, background, drug screen). "Prior to the first day of class" for the BSN; for DNP/PMHNP, students purchase CastleBranch on acceptance and must clear before practicum registration; specific pre-licensure dates not publicly enumerated.
Public clinical-requirement information pulled from catalog.liberty.edu. We track what is listed so you can compare it against your program's current checklist.

Liberty Nursing requirements
Common questions about Liberty Nursing requirements
Does Liberty Nursing accept QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus for TB screening?
Yes — Liberty Nursing's published clinical-clearance requirements list interferon-gamma release assays (IGRA / QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus) among accepted TB screening tests. See the school's published source for the complete list of accepted tests.
Does Liberty Nursing accept titers as proof of immunity?
Yes — Liberty Nursing's published immunization requirements accept quantitative titers as evidence for MMR and Hepatitis B surface antibody. Practiclear can order these titers in one Virginia draw and issue clinician-signed documentation when the reviewed result supports the requirement. The school's source page lists the exact accepted evidence.
Where do Liberty Nursing students upload immunization and clearance documentation?
Liberty Nursing uses CastleBranch (referenced explicitly in MSN/DNP handbooks for compliance, background, drug screen). Practiclear provides clinician-signed documentation as a PDF that students upload through the school's existing process; Practiclear does not submit documentation on the student's behalf.
What is the clinical-clearance deadline at Liberty Nursing?
Liberty Nursing's published requirements describe their clearance deadline cadence — typically tied to clinical-rotation start dates and reviewed each academic term. Specific deadlines change by cohort and program track; confirm with Liberty Nursing's published source for the current term. Practiclear cannot guarantee delivery against any specific institutional deadline.
What public sources don't tell us
We list the gaps because they affect what you should bring to your clinical office. Always confirm the items below with the school's compliance office before ordering.
- The pre-licensure BSN catalog page is unusually thin: it only mandates a 'Rubella titer' specifically (not full MMR titer) and does not specify TB test type, Hep B post-series titer threshold, or annual flu/COVID
- The detailed BSN compliance specifics (CastleBranch package code, exact item list) live in the SON student handbook (Canvas-gated)
- N95 fit-testing policy not stated publicly
