Introduction
The Associate of Applied Science Degree in Nursing is designed to prepare you as a beginning practitioner in the art and science of nursing. You will learn from experienced faculty and mentors in the field.
You’ll learn the correct ethical values and legal principles, as well as the very best instruction to provide safe and effective total client care.
We’re not going to kid around. The ADN Nursing program is a true challenge. You will laugh with all of your new friends in the program, and cry with them as well. You’ll come to think of them as a second family.
The program usually lasts five semesters, and your focus will be on classes like “Human Anatomy & Physiology” and “Nursing I.” You’ll also take some electives along the way too.
