The Associate Degree Nursing program is a limited enrollment, 72-semester-hour program, approved by the Florida Board of Nursing. This program has special admission, attendance, grading and fee requirements. Refer to the Chipola Nursing Course Syllabi and Nursing Handbook for specifics. A copy is available online on the Chipola website or in Q-229.
Because of the unique responsibilities involved in the delivery of health care services, students seeking admission to this program must meet certain selection and admission criteria. Applicants with the best qualifications will be selected.
Upon successful completion of the prescribed course of study, graduates will receive an Associate in Science Degree Nursing and will be eligible to take the NCLEX (National Council Licensure Examination) for professional licensure as a registered nurse (RN).
The Nursing program prepares students for first level positions as Registered Nurses. It provides a curriculum of theoretical, simulated learning and clinical study. Academic preparation includes both general education and nursing courses. Students, under the direct guidance of the nursing faculty, actively participate in providing care to carefully selected patients in hospitals and other health care settings. Most nursing courses consist of a theoretical, laboratory and clinical component.
The program receives LPN’s into the third term of the program, enabling them to acquire their ADN in three semesters. The program also facilitates articulation toward an upper division baccalaureate program in nursing. ADN students will adhere to standards as listed in the Chipola Nursing Student Handbook that comply with the Florida Board of Nursing requirements for written rules and policies. Applicants are advised that if there has been an arrest or conviction for any offense other than a minor traffic violation, the Florida State Board of Nursing has the authority to deny license as a Registered Nurse. Applicants must certify in writing that there is no bar to future licensure in the State of Florida based upon the above provision. Admission to the Nursing program, however, will in no way imply that the Florida Board of Nursing will allow
the potential graduate to take the licensing examination.
