Dual Enrollment Academy | 29-credits toward Nursing - Associate Degree

Nurses are key to the healthcare team, serving as caregivers, educators and patient advocates. Licensed nurses may work in hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities or on the business side of healthcare.

Upon successfully completing pre-nursing coursework and being admitted to the Nursing program, qualified students may petition for a seat. If a seat is awarded, students take the additional 38 credits of core Nursing courses to complete their Nursing degree.
