STCC's Nursing Program Information Sessions
for Prospective Nursing Applicants

Due to the high volume of applications to our Nursing Major and the demand for information regarding gaining admission to the program, the College has scheduled informative Nursing Admission Info-Sessions.  All students interested in Nursing are STRONGLY encouraged to attend one of these sessions.  Please note, Admissions staff will not be meeting with students on an individual basis for Nursing unless they have extreme circumstances that will not allow them to attend an info-session.

The sessions are for everybody – first time college students, transfer students, as well as current STCC students in other majors who wish to change their major to Nursing.

Information sessions are held in Building 20 throughout the year for any potential students wishing to learn more about or apply to the Nursing Program at STCC. These information sessions are open to all so no pre-registration is required.
