LVN t RN 30-Unit Optin Certificate The Califrnia Bard f Nursing requires that all schls ffer this ptin. Hwever, this ptin carries with it a number f cnsequences yu need t be aware f: This ptin des nt result in a degree. It is a certificate prgram. Yu d nt graduate frm this prgram. Rather, yu earn a certificate. The certificate yu earn fllwing successful prgram cmpletin, and subsequent RN licensure, are nt recgnized in any state but Califrnia, which means yu cannt wrk in any ther state as an RN. All RN-BSN prgrams require an Assciate Degree as an admissin requirement. The 30-Unit Optin certificate is nt an Assciate Degree. With this ptin, yu cannt cntinue yur educatin. This ptin severely limits in and ut-f-state emplyment alng with educatin pprtunities. Because f these issues, interested students must meet with the Directr f Nursing and Health Occupatins t apply.

Waitlisted students are given pririty the fllwing year, accrding t their lttery number. All students (waitlisted and new applicants) are ntified by mail f their lttery number n an annual basis. We encurage degree-ptin students wh are waiting fr admissin t take additinal required general educatin curses fr the nursing degree, abve and beynd the prerequisite curses. Please Nte: THE NUMBER OF CAREER MOBILITY STUDENTS ADMITTED ANNUALLY IS DEPENDENT ON FISCAL RESOURCES. 2.

Students are advised (accrding t Califrnia Bard f Registered Nursing guidelines) t seek vluntary aid fr cnditins that culd, if left unattended, lead t disciplinary actin and/r prevent licensure t practice nursing in Califrnia. 11. At the cmpletin f the Prgram, students must apply fr licensure thrugh the Califrnia Bard f Registered Nursing (BRN). As a part f the applicatin prcess, all applicants are required t reprt any disciplinary actin against a prfessinal license and/r any misdemeanr r felny cnvictins; certain cnvictins may result in the denial f the applicant s applicatin, which then results in an inability t btain licensure as a registered nurse.
