School of Nursing

The School of Nursing is a two-year program leading to the Associate Degree in Nursing.

Graduates of the program are eligible to write the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN)

The Associate Degree Program has limited enrollment and therefore admission will be selective and competitive. Applicants must be officially accepted into the program prior to enrolling in any nursing course. Applicants are considered on the cumulative GPA of prerequisite courses, ACT scores and/or NLN pre-Admission Examination. Transfer students will be accepted using the same criteria and on a space available basis.

The program prepares the graduate to function as a generalist and to practice in a variety of positions in a variety of clinical settings. The programs goal is to graduate competent, qualified, caring and compassionate nurses.
