Nursing: RN from LPN/LVN On-line Program
General Information

Licensed practical nurses may choose to complete the associate degree of applied science in nursing by enrolling in the on-line nursing program available to Michigan and Northeast Ohio residents only. This program is a cooperatively run program by Monroe County Community College, Kirtland Community College and Kalamazoo Valley Community College. One of these schools must serve as the “home school,” which is ideally the school located closest geographically and the degree granting institution. This is an intensive, on-line program. The workload is heavy each week, with frequent assignment deadlines. Working knowledge of computers and online computer use is required. Also, access to a more recent computer system with Internet connection is imperative.

Successful completion of the full program and the A.A.S. degree will allow graduates to be eligible to
take the NCLEX-RN CAT, the licensing examination to practice as a registered nurse. The Michigan State
Board of Nursing determines eligibility for licensure, not MCCC.
