ADN PROGRAM

The Brazosport College ADN Program is a two year program awarding an Associate in Applied Science Degree (A.A.S.). Upon satisfactory completion of all college and program requirements, graduates are eligible to make application to sit for the National Council Licensure Exam for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN).

The ADN program has received initial accreditation from the Texas Board of Nursing and is in candidacy process with the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC).

Approximate cost of the ADN program is $6200 for In-District, $7300 for Out-of-District. This includes tuition, fees, textbooks, uniforms and other supplies. Again, these are just approximate costs.
