NURSING PROGRAM INFORMATION PACKET IN PDF FORMAT
The Associate Degree Nursing Program prepares the student for a career as a Registered Nurse. Upon satisfactory completion of the curriculum, the student is awarded an Associate in Applied Sciences Degree and is eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) for Registered Nursing. Course sequencing, prerequisites, and core requirements require students to attend classes over at least a three-year period to attain an Associate Degree in nursing.
Generic Student Option - Application due dates January 2nd, July 1st orOctober 1st.
The nursing courses in the generic program are taught in a six-quarter sequence over a two-year period, excluding summer. The program is open to men and women and admits a class in the Fall. Winter and Spring quarters.
A part-time option is also available for those students who will be more successful attending school half-time. Students attend theory class one quarter, followed by the clinical portion the next quarter. Due to this split, students attend classes during summer quarter in addition to the usual academic year (fall-spring). Entry to the part-time option occurs only once a year with the spring quarter enrollment.
Advanced Standing for LPN Option - Application due dates April 1st or October 1st.
Licensed Practical Nurses desiring to become Register Nurses may apply for advanced standing in the program. LPNs are admitted into the program two times a year, Summer and Winter. The students are required to take a LPN Bridge course that is a transition course into either 3rd or 4th level, depending on what level of assessment the student is placed. There are full-time and part-time opportunities available in the program.
A graduate who has completed the Associate Degree in Nursing may "bridge" into a Bachelor's Degree program at a four-year institution.Additional prerequisites required for the individual Bachelor's Degree program may also be completed at TCC. Interested students are encouraged to contact the four-year college or university of their choice to obtain more detailed information.
The Associate Degree Nursing Program at Tacoma Community College is approved by the Washington State Nursing Care Quality Assurance Commission and is accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission.*
