About

James A. Rhodes State College (JARSC) offers a variety of nursing education opportunities for those seeking to break into this exciting field. Students can choose from a number of degree programs and certifications, all providing quality and affordable options that help launch their careers. The college’s Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) program is designed to help students develop a comprehensive understanding of the core concepts and principles of nursing care. Through lecture-based courses, clinical experiences and online learning, students learn the skills needed to provide safe and effective patient care. Upon successful completion of this program, students are eligible to sit for the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN). Advanced standing for RNs seeking an ASN degree is available. The RN to ASN Mobility Program allows registered nurses that already hold a nursing license in Ohio to apply credits from a prior education and quickly earn an Associate’s degree from JARSC. This path offers a flexible and cost-effective way to further one’s education while maintaining licensure and employment in the nursing industry. In addition to the Associate’s degree, those wishing to advance their education and strengthen their qualifications can pursue a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN). The BSN program at JARSC emphasizes evidence-based practice and patient-centered care, enabling students to build on the knowledge and skills acquired through the ASN program. James A. Rhodes State College provides an array of educational choices in the field of nursing. From the Associate’s level to the Bachelor’s level, each degree is designed to provide students with the essential knowledge and real-world experience they need to succeed in this rewarding profession.
