Advanced Placement for Nursing Courses

Registered nurse students from associate degree nursing programs will be assessed for placement based on whether their program included the competencies mandated by the Texas Board of Nursing. Prior nursing courses are evaluated on an individual basis and standardized testing may be required for some courses.

Thirty-nine (39) credit hours of nursing will be awarded by escrow toward the Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree following the successful completion of the clinical nursing course (NURS 4613).
