The Baccalaureate Nursing Program (BS) may be taken on either a full or part-time basis. All nursing classes are taught after 4 p.m. Transfer credits are accepted in non-nursing courses from official transcripts. Baccalaureate nursing credits are not routinely accepted from other schools, but are considered on an individual basis once course descriptions and requirements are examined. Students not graduating from AUC's Associate in Science Nursing Program are granted up to 30 hours of nursing credit from official transcripts from accredited nursing programs. The curriculum is organized within the framework of Professional Nursing Practice (PNP), which includes the development of Professional Nursing Competencies, Professional Nursing Values and Professional Nursing Roles.
