The Nursing Program prepares students to be registered nurses who will help meet the current and emerging needs in the workplace for registered nurses.. Graduates use a clinical decision making process to provide care to diverse individuals across the life-span.

Following acceptance into a nursing class, the day program includes a sequence of four clinical program courses that can be completed in two academic years. A new day class is accepted each fall. The night program includes five clinical program courses and takes two and one-half years to complete. New night classes are accepted every other year on the odd numbered years. A minimum grade of “C” must be earned in all courses included in the summary of required hours.

Go to the Nursing Program Brochures for detailed information on program policies or for information about admission, readmission, transfer from an accredited nursing program, and articulation with baccalaureate programs.
