History
The Drexel University College of Nursing and Health Professions (CNHP) has been providing education in nursing and health professions for over 100 years. The Drexel CNHP as we know it today was not formed until 2002 with the joint participation and merging of Tenet Healthcare and MCP- Hahnemann University into the Drexel University College of Nursing and Health Professions, but what would one day become the Drexel CNHP has a rich history in Philadelphia.

Widely considered the first state-chartered school for nurses in the country, the Woman’s Hospital of Philadelphia affiliated with the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania began hospital-based nursing programs in 1863. In 1867, the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania was turned into the Woman’s Medical College of Pennsylvania. The Hospital of the Woman’s Medical College of Pennsylvania was established in 1904 and the nurse training program at the Hospital of the Woman’s Medical College was part of the plan for this new hospital from it's creation, graduating its first three nurses in 1906.

From 1890 to 2002, what would be known as Drexel University, the Hahnemann Hospital Training School for Nurses and Woman’s Medical College Hospital School of Nursing went through large periods of growth and change leading to the eventual merging of Hahnemann Hospital and it's teaching schools and the Drexel University College of Health Professions led to the CHNP that Drexel University has today.
