What is SNA?

SNA is a recognized student organization on campus. Membership includes any student at the University of Wyoming that has declared nursing as a major -- Freshman through Seniors. We strongly encourage those of you who haven't joined to do so. This is an excellent way to become actively involved in your education. You are also given the opportunity to become a member of the NSNA which is the National Student Nurses' Association. There are many benefits and opportunities that are made available to you through NSNA. We encourage all who are interested to fill out an application.
