Need some info on the Evening/Weekend program at Southwest Tennessee Community College.


How long is the program?
Can you transfer into the program?

Any info would be helpful.

Thanks.

Re: Southwest Tennessee Community College

From my experience....you can transfer certain credits. But the overall admission into their nursing program is ridiculous. You must take the Pre-NLEX, A&P 1/2, and Microbiology. All of that plus your current GPA is indexed together to determine your admission. And they only accept the top 40 or so each semester. I did many of my prereqs at Southwest and transferred to Baptist College.

Re: Southwest Tennessee Community College

The program is 2 yrs in length. 4 semesters (no nursing classes in the summer). The night and weekend program begins every January. (The day program begins every August.) What previous thread said about criteria for acceptance is correct...except I there were 60 accepted in my class. The night and weekend program is more competitive than the day. The day program does offer some Sat and Sun Clinicals.
Best of luck to you
