LVNs who enter into the second year of the Nursing Program may choose one of the two options: A.S. in Nursing, or "30 Unit Non-Degree" option. (Note about the "30 Unit Non-Degree option"-- The Associate Degree is NOT awarded with this option and the nurse will always be considered a "non-degree graduate."
