Prospective registered nurses in Ohio have four different types of prelicensure programs from which to choose, and the associate’s degree in nursing (ADN) is definitely one of the most popular. Over sixty such programs are available at universities and colleges throughout the state, both public and private. All ADN programs prepare students to pass the NCLEX-RN national licensure examination upon completion.
Associate’s degree programs are relatively short, requiring only two years of fulltime study from beginning to end. Many programs offer class schedules that allow students to pursue their ADN despite work and other personal commitments. Some campuses may also offer evening learning, a point worth researching when evaluating the various associate’s degree programs available.
