What nursing roles do you qualify for with an associate’s degree?
An associate's degree in nursing (ADN) is a great option for individuals seeking a career as a Registered Nurse. It provides a strong foundation in nursing knowledge and clinical skills, and enables graduates to sit for the NCLEX-RN exam and become an RN. Additionally, many ADN programs offer flexible schedules and affordable tuition, making it a popular choice for students who need to balance work and family responsibilities while pursuing their education.
Learn more about Nursing Degree Options.
-
Is an ADN the same as an RN?
An ADN (Associate Degree in Nursing) is a type of nursing degree that can lead to becoming an RN (Registered Nurse).
ADN programs typically take 2-3 years to complete and focus on the core nursing courses needed to become an RN, whereas a BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing) program is a 4-year degree that includes additional general education courses and additional nursing coursework.
Once a student completes either an ADN or BSN program and passes the NCLEX-RN exam, they are eligible to become a licensed RN.
