Career Mobility Option

The Career Mobility Program is an accelerated curriculum track for the licensed practical nurse (LPN) which recognizes the knowledge and skills of the LPN.   Individuals seeking admission into the program must meet college admission requirements, be a graduate of a practical nursing program, have a total of one or more year’s working experience as an LPN within the last three years and meet the same academic requirements in the pre-clinical, science, and general education courses as students admitted under the regular nursing program. When the above requirements are met the student should contact the Director of Nursing regarding application for admission to the clinical nursing program and registration for NURS 1180/1181 (Transition to Nursing). Upon completion of NURS 1180/1181 with a grade of "C" or higher, credit will be awarded for NURS 1170 (Nursing Process-CM) and the student will then be admitted into the second year of the clinical nursing program. Application deadline is January 31.
