The Yale Hybrid MSN–PMHNP Advantage:
Yale excellence wherever you are.
Earn your Yale School of Nursing degree without relocating. The Hybrid MSN in Psychiatric-Mental Health combines world-class Yale faculty, an innovative curriculum, exceptional clinical preparation, and a reputation that opens doors - no matter where you choose to practice.
Flexibility that fits your life.
Advance your career without stepping away from what matters. With live online classes, immersive on-campus intensives, and structured weekly engagement, you’ll advance with confidence - without putting your life, family or career on hold.
A curriculum built for results.
Designed for real-world impact. Our competency-first curriculum emphasizes practical mastery -so you’ll know exactly what you’re expected to learn and how to apply it. With a flexible, structured path, you’ll move steadily toward licensure, board certification, and meaningful practice.
Small cohorts make a big impact.
With modestly sized cohorts and a low student-to-faculty ratio, you’ll never feel like a number. Your faculty will know your name, your goals, and your strengths - and you’ll have a close-knit group of peers beside you through every milestone, from orientation to graduation.
Practice that goes beyond theory.
Clinical confidence starts here. In simulated labs, virtual consults, and real-world settings, you’ll learn by doing - refining your clinical judgment through direct faculty feedback, patient interactions, and hands-on practice that mirrors the complexity of modern mental health care.
