Description
The Associate of Applied Science (AAS degree) in Nursing is designed to prepare the student for a career as a Registered Nurse. Upon satisfactory completion of the program, the graduate will be prepared to take National Council Licensure Exam - Registered Nurse (RN). The program is approved by the Arizona State Board of Nursing and accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN). Students wishing to transfer to four-year institutions will have the academic foundation to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing.

Students wishing to obtain their license as a Practical Nurse are qualified to take the National Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses (NCLEX-LPN) after successful completion of the first two semesters.
Obtaining a license to practice as an LPN provides potential opportunities for students to work while they complete the Nursing, AAS program, gain confidence and experience, and begin to establish themselves in the workforce.
