Associates Degree Nursing is a program that prepares students to become nurses within acute, chronic, extended, industrial, and community health care facilities. Graduates of this program are eligible to take the NCLEX-RN and work in various healthcare settings.

Locations: Lee Main Campus, Chatham Health Sciences Center

Returning Students: Students who are seeking re-entry into a nursing program after an unsuccessful attempt in an NUR course are required to complete the ATI Launch: Nursing Academic Readiness course before re-enrolling. This six-week, self-paced program is designed to strengthen skills in reading, math, science, and study strategies, giving students the tools they need to be successful in their final attempt at nursing coursework. Because students are permitted to take an NUR course only twice, completing Launch helps ensure that re-entry students are better prepared to succeed and progress in the program. The cost of the program is the responsibility of the student, but financial assistance may be available. Please contact the Department Chair of Nursing for instructions on completing the Launch program before applying to return to a nursing program.
