Associate of Applied Science in Nursing: LPN to RN Track

The Associate of Applied Science in Nursing degree qualifies the graduate to sit for the National Council Licensing Examination (NCLEX) in Nursing at the Registered Nurse (RN) level. When the graduate successfully passes the examination, the nursing graduate will be licensed as a Registered Nurse by the State Board of Nursing.

This program prepares you to take the NCLEX exam in the state of Michigan. Graduates who want to practice in other states should review those requirements via that Board of Nursing. For Board of Nursing requirements in other states, please see the NCSBN website.

The LPN to RN track is designed for Practical Nurses with current licensure. Admission into the AASN program requires current LPNs to apply for the nursing program and successfully complete NUR 204 – Nursing Role Transitions course with a minimum of 2.5.

Those who pass NUR 204 are moved into open seats in the 2nd year of the AASN program.

NUR 204 – Nursing Role Transition is offered in the winter semester. Students moving into the AASN program will begin the following fall semester.
