The College of New Rochelle School of Nursing is inviting individuals who have received a minimum of a baccalaureate degree in a non-nursing field of study to the Second Degree Open House. Prospective students will be able to meet with the assistant dean of recruitment and planning and the assistant director of financial aid.
The Second Degree program offers two tracks. The Accelerated Track is a prescribed sequence of required nursing courses taken over 18 months of study. One of the criteria of this track is that the student must have successfully completed all 61 credits of liberal arts and science prerequisite courses.
The Individualized Track supports either full-time or part-time study, and the student will complete the nursing program in approximately 2 1/2 years. Upon successful completion of the program, students will graduate with a bachelor of science in nursing degree.
