Associate Of Applied Science In Nursing (AASN) Degree The Division of Nursing offers an LPN-RN Transition Program leading to the Associate of Applied Science in Nursing (AASN) Degree. The AASN Program is approved by the Arkansas State Board of Nursing. Admission Requirements, AASN Applications to the LPN-RN Transition Program must be received by March 1 for admission into the program which begins each year in the Summer I semester. At the discretion of the Chair of the Division of Nursing, and when space is available, late applications will be considered on an individual basis until time for the program to begin. All applicants are required to: 1. Meet all University requirements; 2. Have a minimum GPA of 2.00 in all general education and nursing support courses completed. It is strongly recommended that all general education and nursing support courses be completed before beginning the nursing portion of the LPN-RN Transition Program. However, with the approval of the Division of Nursing Chair, up to 6 credits of general education or nursing support courses can be completed during the time the student is completing required nursing courses. All required general education and nursing support courses must be completed before the last semester of nursing courses. Any deviation from requirements will have prior approval from the Division of Nursing Chair; 50. Have a letter of recommendation from the student’s practical nursing school with the date of graduation; 51. Have a handwritten, one-page, letter indicating why he/she wishes to become a registered nurse; and 52. Have a current unencumbered Arkansas LPN license. Progression In The Nursing Sequence A minimum grade of “C” in each nursing course is required for progression in the nursing sequence. Readmission A student who discontinues the nursing sequence for any reason must petition the Division of Nursing Admissions Committee for readmission into the nursing program. Students are permitted only one readmission. Acceptance for readmission is based on availability of space, documentation of corrected deficiencies, and approval of the nursing faculty. Students who are readmitted are accountable for the degree requirements in force at the time of readmission. Admission (Advanced Placement) Registered Nurses (RNs), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), and Licensed Psychiatric Technical Nurses (LPTNs) may qualify for advanced placement within the BSN clinical course sequence. Verification of a current valid, unrestricted Arkansas RN, LPN, or LPTN license is required. RNs with an Associate Degree or Diploma may apply for advanced placement in the BSN program. The RN will receive credit for 33 semester hours for NURS 311V Concepts in Nursing Care I, NURS 332V Concepts in Nursing Care II, and NURS 444V Concepts in Nursing Care III. The 33 hours of credit will be held in escrow. The student will receive credit for these courses upon successful completion of the program. Additionally, applicants who have graduated nursing school for more 166 2005-07 arkansas monticello catalog
than 24 months will be required to take the 1 credit Basic Skills Check-Off course to update clinical skills. RNs complete the same general education and support courses as students enrolled in the generic BSN program but have a specified program for completing theory and clinical nursing course requirements. A letter of recommendation from a current or most recent RN supervisor in a nursing position is required of all applicants. LPNs/LPTNs may apply for advanced placement in the BSN program. LPNs/ LTPNs may receive credit for 11 semester hours for NURS 311V Concepts in Nursing Care I if they have graduated from LPN/LPTN school within 24 months. After 24 months, a validation examination must be passed with a score of 74 or better to obtain advanced placement credit for NURS 311V. The syllabus for NURS 311V may be purchased prior to the validating exam for purposes of studying independently for the examination. LPNs/LPTNs are required to submit a letter of recommendation from their nursing school and from the most recent or present nursing position RN supervisor. The validating examination may be taken only once. The application process for admission into UAM and the nursing program must be completed before validating examinations may be taken. Applicants seeking admission to the nursing program through advanced placement should meet with the Division Chair. All nursing faculty are included in the evaluation of the advanced placement student and make recommendations regarding advanced placement to the Division Chair. Transfer Credit Students seeking transfer credit from another institution must submit course descriptions and transcripts to the Division of Nursing and meet with the Division Chair. All faculty are included in the evaluation and placement of transfer students in the nursing sequence and make recommendations regarding transfer of nursing credit to the Division Chair. Standardized testing and validation of skills may be required based on the evaluation of the transcript. Conviction of a Crime To satisfy requirements of some clinical agencies where students complete clinical course requirements, a clear criminal background check is required for each student upon acceptance into upper-division clinical nursing courses. Students must bear the cost of the services of a faculty-selected professional agency used to perform the criminal background check and provide a report to Division of Nursing faculty. The Arkansas State Board of Nursing requires an additional criminal background check by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and by the Arkansas State Police for graduates of nursing schools. The Arkansas State Board of Nursing has the authority to deny application for nurse licensure to any person who has been convicted of a crime. A student who has been convicted of a crime should schedule an appointment with the Chair of the Division of Nursing. Expenses In addition to the usual student fees and expenses, nursing students can expect the following additional costs: uniforms, professional equipment and supplies, professional workshop fees, standardized examinations, licensure examination review seminar, national and state licensing examination costs, criminal background checks, supplementary book costs, and travel.
