As students come from varying school backgrounds, the program of completion is individualized. Normally students complete in two to three years (4-6 semesters). The program requirements will involve clinical activities that cannot be carried out in the student?s normal work setting.

Up to 31 credits of lower-division nursing may be accepted from the associate degree transcript.

RN?s without recognized academic credit in nursing may obtain credit by successfully passing the NLN Upward Mobility Profile II Tests, or an acceptable option. These tests passed at the recommended score would count toward the 31 credits of lower-division nursing credits (although not counted in the GPA).

General Education and Cognate courses are also considered when transferring into our program. Each student will be evaluated on an individual basis to determine which of the 32 General Education credits and the 28 Cognate credits remain of those required for graduation.
