Two-Year Plan

The following is the sequence of the Nursing courses in a 2 year plan. Students must consult their advisor regarding non-departmental requirements. Students must be admitted into the Nursing Program to enroll in the nursing courses. A minimum of “C” is required in all nursing courses to progress to the sequential nursing courses. A failure or withdrawal in a nursing course requires a written request for readmission to the Department of Nursing. A break in the usual curricular pattern means completion of the nursing curriculum may take more than the two years. Departmental policy mandates the program of study must be completed within five years from the time the student was enrolled in the first clinical nursing course.
