LPN to Associate Degree Advanced Placement Nurse Education – Part Time

Program Description

Associate in Science Degree

Classes for the part-time course of study are held primarily in the evening. This option mirrors the full-time option but is designed to provide a longer study time for those who value and desire the RN 56 | Massasoit Community College 2023-2024 College Catalog role. This course of study leads to an Associate of Science degree and eligibility to take the NCLEX-RN.

The LPN cohort option is three semesters in duration. LPNs receive advanced placement if they graduated from an approved school of practical nursing, hold a current unrestricted license to practice practical nursing in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and have successfully completed the required courses of the first three semesters. Students receive credit for Nursing I-E, II-E, and III-E. LPN graduates of Southeastern Regional, Blue Hills Technical, and Bristol Plymouth Technical may be given transfer credit for the Human Growth and Development course.
