Pre-admission Advising
ASN Program
All potential applicants must talk to a Department of Nursing advisor prior to submitting an application. Group advising sessions are available the 3rd Wednesday of every month. Register for these sessions by clicking on the link located in the Upcoming Events on the left of this page. Please bring copies of all college transcripts to your advising session. The purpose of the session is to provide you with information regarding the program and is not to be confused with academic advising for registration clearance. Academic advising for registration for undeclared majors is provided by University College (501-569-3386).
