The Registered Nursing (RN) program is a two year Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) Program that offers college credit. The second year of the program, beginning with Mental Health Nursing in the Summer II Session, is online for the lecture portion of the class. Students are prepared for upward mobility in a nursing career. The program is approved by the Texas Board of Nursing and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. The program is also approved by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN). Upon completion, students will make application to take the State Board Examination to become a Registered Nurse. Many of our ADN students take advantage of our articulation agreements with two West Texas Universities to go on and earn their BSN degree. We offer certificate programs for those seeking to be Licensed Vocational Nurses and additionally, once an LVN is completed, we offer a transition program for students to continue through the Associate Degree program and be eligible to become registered nurses.
