The Nursing and Allied Health General Education Courses

Acceptance into a clinical program in the Division of Nursing/Allied Health is based upon a competitive process. Most students enroll in the general education courses for the program in which they are interested prior to applying to the program. By so doing, a student can often enhance their standing in the competitive selection process. Please make an appointment with a Nursing or Allied Health advisor to create an educational plan.

Any transitional studies courses that are required based on college entrance assessments must be completed prior to entering any nursing and allied health program.
