The Associate Degree Nursing (A.D.N.) program at Santa Ana College (SAC) is approved by the California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN) and accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC). The program is designed to qualify the student for the licensure examination and entry into practice as a Registered Nurse (RN). Additionally, completion of the A.D.N. degree prepares a student to transfer to a four-year institution for completion of a baccalaureate degree. The curriculum follows the SAC Conceptual Framework for Nursing. 

Completion of a Nursing Orientation (call (714) 564-6100 for Santa Ana College Counseling or (714) 628-4800 for Santiago Canyon College Counseling) is strongly advised. Advanced placement in the program may be granted to those students with certain prior experience, vocational nursing, or registered nursing education or equivalent. Advanced Placement/Transfer/Challenge applicants require an individual appointment with the Program Director. Advanced placement students are accepted on a space available basis. Priority class placement is given to continuing and SAC re-entry students.

The mechanism of admission to the Nursing Program is in transition due to state regulations.

New applications will not be accepted for the first semester entry list after June, 2009, due to a transition in the admission mechanism.

For students completing prerequisites after June, 2009, who want to enter the first semester, please check this website for any updates in the admissions procedures.
