Congratulations Nursing Class of 2021!
Pre-Nursing CNA Requirement
Pre-nursing students applying for the BSN program in January 2022 are required to have certification as a nursing assistant. If you do not yet have this certification, the BSN program strongly encourages you to enroll in a Nurse Aide course that can be completed over Summer semester to alleviate scheduling and workload conflicts with our prerequisites during Fall Semester. The BSN program would like to recommend courses available at Wilkes Community College (at Wilkes, Alleghany, or Ashe Campuses) being held this summer. Please see this link for more details. Scroll down or filter this list to see NUR 3240. There are four course offerings this summer: https://wcc.wilkescc.edu/workforcedevelopment/index.php
