As Sentara continues to evolve to meet the future of healthcare, we are also shaping the future of our college.

We want to make you aware of two significant developments underway:
- Degree Programs – We are working to establish strategic partnerships with state and regional universities to transition all nursing and non-nursing degree-granting programs.
- Certificate Programs – We are evaluating our certificate offerings, including the types of programs, structure, and delivery format that will best meet future needs.
At this time, we are pausing new admissions into degree-granting programs while final decisions are made. We will continue to accept new students into our medical assistant, patient care technician, cardiac electrophysiology, and monitor surveillance certificate programs at the Chesapeake campus.
Updates will be posted here as they become available. We know there will be a lot of questions, so we have put together a team to help provide answers. Please don’t hesitate to contact us at newpath@sentara.edu.
