PRE-ACCEPTANCE NURSING (TRACK I) (ADN to BSN TRANSFER TRACK) Associate in Science Degree (AS)
There are two tracks that a student can take to become a Registered Nurse. PRE-ACCEPTANCE NURSING TRACKS EXPLAINED PRE-ACCEPTANCE NURSING (TRACK I) (COLLEGE TRANSFER TRACK) Associate in Science Degree (AS) Track I is called the “Pre - Nursing Track I”. This track is designed for the student who is wishing to one day transfer to a BSN (Bachelors of Science in Nursing) program at a four-year college. In taking this track, students will take a variety of liberal arts classes in Written Compostion (Area I); Humanities and Fine Arts Area II); Natural Sciences and Mathematics (Area III); History and Social & Behavioral Sciences (Area IV); and Pre-Professional/LSCC Courses (Area V). Students who are following this track can still seek admission into LSCC’s two -year RN (Registered Nursing) program once they have met the required criteria for admissions into that program. However, the benefit to students seeking this two-year General Studies degree in Nursing is that they will be able to transfer more credits earned toward their Bachelors of Science at a four-year insititution. As a result, they will be able to graduate from a four-year college in nursing faster. Interested in pursuing this degree? See the degree plan breakdown on the next page of this catalog and speak to your advisor.
Follow TRACK I if you plan to transfer credits earned towards a Bachelors degree in Nursing either now or years later. See advisor for help.
