Career Mobility Nursing Program Admission

The New Jersey Board of Nursing and the National League for Nursing Accreditation Commission have approved the revised Career Mobility proposal. It will now be easier to meet the academic requirements for completing the A.A.S. Degree in Nursing at 365球赛平台.

The licensed practical nurse seeking admission to the Career Mobility Program must:

• Be a working LPN for at least six months.
• Supply official high school transcripts and any college transcripts to Registration and Records.
• Complete general education requirements with a minimum “C” grade BEFORE proceeding to Career Mobility Program. (BIOL 130, 131, or 232 must be repeated if more than ten years old unless taken at 365球赛平台)
• Have a GPA >2.7
• Complete the college change of curriculum form indicating “Career Mobility” after general education requirements are met.
• Pass the TEAS exam
• Contact Professor Scrofine at sscrofine@5675n.com to set up an appointment.
• Complete the Student Health Record and Physical Exam (upon acceptance)
• Complete the criminal background check after passing the TEAS test.
• Computer competency needed NCLEX review material
• Must provide proof of Ocean County residency.
• Having a Bachelor’s Degree does not exclude a Career Mobility candidate from completing the entrance criteria.

Students will be charged nine credits of challenge by exam fees for successfully challenging the NURS 175 final exam.

You must meet with Professor Scrofine to review eligibility for sitting for the exam.

Upon completing all the above criteria, the students will receive the nine credits for NURS 175 (Nursing 1) and will be admitted into NURS 176 (Nursing 2) depending upon sitting availability.

If unsuccessful, the student must apply for entry into the generic Nursing Program beginning with Nurs. 1 through the Admissions Office.

The applicant must provide the following to Professor Scrofine at the time of the meeting:

• a transcript that all pre-requisite generic courses were successfully completed
• a copy of a current NJ LPN license
• proof of employment as an LPN
• a copy of passing TEAS exam results

The applicant will then be given a bill for the Credits by Challenge Exam ($1000.00) which must be paid prior to the time of the exam. The paid receipt can be given to Professor Scrofine at the time of the exam.

Successful completion of the Credit by Challenge Exam results in the applicant’s ability to enroll in NURS. 176 (Nursing 2) in the spring semester based upon seating availability in either on-site, online (most likely), or traditional.
