Nursing Advising & Information Sessions

Maricopa Nursing at EMCC

Students interested in our Nursing program are required to view a virtual nursing information session, which will provide in-depth information, enrollment guidance, and academic advising.
Please download and view the Pre-Nursing Information Session below. In the document, you will learn about:

  • The Traditional (RN) and Concurrent Enrollment Programs (CEP).
  • The steps to apply to a program.
  • Where and when you should take the HESI A2.
  • Health and safety requirements.
  • Where to send previous college and high school transcripts.
  • What happens when you apply to a program.
  • Advanced Placement and other Nursing program options in the Maricopa Community Colleges.

The Online Concurrent Enrollment Information Session (below) will guide you through the process for applying, paying for, and completing the Concurrent Enrollment Program (CEP) where you will connect with one of our university partners to receive both your Associate in Applied Science: Nursing and your Bachelor of Science: Nursing simultaneously.
