Vocational Nursing Program Program begins Spring 2024 |
September 8, 2023 | November 17, 2023 |
Thank you for your interest in the Hartnell College Vocational Nursing program. The
program is impacted, meaning that far more qualified students apply than can be accepted.
Before applying, please be aware that classroom and some clinical courses are taught
using face-to-face, hybrid, and online formats. Clinical courses occur throughout
Monterey County and are scheduled seven days per week and 24-hours each day. Clinical
class times, dates, and places are subject to change based on unanticipated circumstances.
Your success is important to us. Please consider your level of preparedness before
committing to an education in vocational nursing. Research indicates that successful
Hartnell nursing students work less than 16 hours per week and have an extended support
system of family and friends. Because of intricacies and rigor of our academic program,
we cannot accommodate your employment or family responsibilities.
We ask that you review our Nursing and Health Sciences Student Handbook and Policy
and Procedure Manual. Become familiar with our mission, vision, values, and philosophy before you apply. Please be sure that Hartnell College is a good match for you.
New, Returning and Dual Enrollment Students are required to have a current application.
It is required that all prerequisites be completed before applying to the program. In progress courses will be not be considered.
