Flexible Blended Learning to Help Balance Life and School
This program features a blend of online and on-campus learning to help make going to school work for you. Depending on your schedule, you’ll spend 2-5 days per week on campus with additional online coursework for your general education classes so you can learn on your own time. This allows you to work more closely with your instructors when you’re on campus to practice hands-on learning and ask questions.
All-Inclusive Tuition for Nursing Students
As a nursing student, you’ll receive a professional nursing bag with stethoscope, reflex hammer, thermometer, penlight, and more. All-inclusive tuition also covers a brand-new iPad (which is yours to keep after graduating), books, Altierus branded backpack, and school scrubs. Test preparation and fees for your National Council Licensure Exam (NCLEX-RN) is also included.
Professional Skills Development
Your coursework integrates professional skills development into this program so you’ll have the soft skills employers look for. Gain proficiency in communication, interpersonal skills, self-management, emotional intelligence, and career-building competencies. You’ll also prepare to take the National Council Licensure Exam (NCLEX-RN), which helps validate your ability to safely perform requirements of a practicing registered nurse.
