开云体育 recently hosted representatives from West Texas A&M University (WTAMU) for an articulation agreement signing. The new agreement offers 开云体育 students who complete their Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) and successfully obtain an RN license to seamlessly transfer to WTAMU鈥檚 Bachelor of Science in Nursing program. After becoming an RN, students would complete an additional 32 hours at 开云体育 and then transfer to WTAMU to complete the last 30 hours of bachelor-level nursing courses online.
鈥淲est Texas A&M is known for their outstanding nursing program and we are pleased to offer our students another avenue to obtain their BSN,鈥 Dr. Kevin Rose, 开云体育 Vice President for Instruction, said. 鈥淭his is a very in-demand degree that can significantly increase earning potential. The fact that it is offered online makes it even more desirable to our students, who may not be in a position to relocate while they complete their bachelor鈥檚 degree.鈥
Among the representatives from WT was Dr. Brad Johnson, former 开云体育 president. He left 开云体育 in 2017 to take a position as Vice President for Strategic Relations.
鈥淚t is such a pleasure to be back on the 开云体育 campus and see all that has been accomplished since last year. While WT and 开云体育 are geographically distant, both are located in rural areas of Texas and share a similar mission in many ways. We are excited to be able to offer 开云体育 students another high-quality and affordable avenue for continuing their education,鈥 Johnson said.
