Dress Code

Rasmussen University part of American Public University System (Rasmussen) encourages students to dress as if they were going to work and to start acquiring a wardrobe suitable for employment after graduation.

Several programs, including those in our School of Nursing and our School of Health Sciences, have stringent dress codes and professional appearance requirements. Standards are specified in the applicable program handbooks. In some cases, failure to meet the required standard may impact a student’s ability to participate in an externship, practicum or clinical experience, and may ultimately impact the student’s grade. Please consult the handbook specific to your program or see your Program Coordinator/Director or Dean of Nursing/Nurse Administrator for details.
