Each year there is a different pool of candidates. We never know how many people will apply. In the past couple of years it has been between 40-50 applicants each semester.
We admit 32 students to start in January and August.
Students earn points based on degree GPA, TEAS test scores, and grades they receive in pre-requisite courses and in selected general education courses. Students with the highest points are admitted. See the “Admission Ranking Worksheet” in the Guide to ReNEW AD Nursing for a detailed description.
We do not utilize a waiting list. After accepting the initial students, we rank the remaining qualified applicants according to their point totals and create an alternate list. Because some students maybe provisionally admitted while enrolled in pre-requisite courses, confirmed admissions will take place upon posting of final grades. If accepted students decline or become inelegible, applicants from the alternate list will be invited to join the program. This list remains viable until beginning of the semester and then becomes void. We begin the following admissions period with no preference given to those applicants who had been on the alternate list.
Starting Fall 2024, a CNA License will be required for admission.
In the Fall of 2016 there was a curriculum change to the ReNEW curriculum. We offer an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN). The ReNEW curriculum is a BSN curriculum with an ADN benchmark so students can become an RN and transition into the BSN program offered on-line through UW . There are some areas that are covered more extensively in the baccalaureate degree. These include research and a greater emphasis on leadership. Basic nursing content is the same in both levels of education. Graduates of both degrees take the same licensing exam, the NCLEX-RN.
After being accepted, the program is 2 years (4 semesters).
Casper College offers many courses via distance education including online courses. See the current college catalog for an up-to-date listing of courses offered, including those offered online. All nursing classes utilize the internet (MyCCMoodle) to augment the course’s delivery.
Nursing students or Nursing program applicants who would like a chance for Wyoming Investment in Nursing (WYIN) funds need to contact Align at 800-999-6541 extension 9019 or 9051.
