Collin College's Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) program prepares students for a career as a professional registered nurse in this quickly-growing field with state-of-the-art facilities and educators who have years of practical experience working in health care. Collin College has been recognized as a Center of Excellence in Nursing Education by the National League for Nursing (NLN) since 2011, one of only a handful of community colleges in the nation to earn that honor.

The concept-based nursing curriculum is designed for deep learning so that you develop higher-level clinical judgment. The curriculum divides nursing concepts into two categories - health care concepts and professional nursing concepts - which are learned in the classroom and then applied in practical settings like the health sciences simulation labs in the Cary A. Israel Health Sciences Center, as well as in local health care facilities where students complete clinical rotations.

The nursing curriculum is approved by the Texas Board of Nursing (Texas BON) and accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN). Upon graduation, Collin College's ADN program students are ready to apply to the Texas BON for licensure as a registered nurse (RN) through the NCLEX-RN examination.

The college also offers a bridge program for LVNs, allowing for faster degree completion to begin your career as a professional registered nurse earlier.
