ASN - Generic Option CURRICULUM


The following courses are required for the ASN Program Generic Option. Grades for the prerequisites and ACT score must be submitted as part of the application process (see Admission Procedure). Other non-nursing courses may be taken prior to application or may be taken with the nursing courses. Each semester's designated courses must be completed prior to registering for the next semester's nursing course. No courses may be delayed to a later semester. Prospective students who plan to take non-nursing courses at other institutions should contact the ASN Program chair regarding transfer of credit prior to taking the courses. A minimum grade of "C" must be earned in all required courses for the ASN curriculum. Two failures (below "C") in any required science course will disqualify a student from admission into the ASN Program. The Human Anatomy & Physiology and Microbiology courses must include labs.
