The Mississippi Board of Nursing does not regulate or approve nursing programs. The Board of Nursing is a consumer protection agency with the authority to regulate the practice of nursing through licensure as provided for the by the Mississippi Nursing Practice Law. Registered nurse programs are accredited and regulated by the Institutions of Higher Learning (www.ihl.state.ms.us). Licensed practical nurse programs are accredited and regulated by the Mississippi State Board for Community and Junior Colleges (www.sbcjc.cc.ms.us). These agencies should be contacted for information about various nursing programs, statistics and degrees.
