PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
BSN PROGRAM: This is a 4-year program leading to a Baccalaureate Degree in Nursing (BSN). This nursing program is
offered in the traditional semester format over the course of 8 semesters. Class and clinical sessions meet mainly during
daytime hours.
In January 2015, San Juan College in partnership with the University of New Mexico (UNM), began admitting BSN students
into the statewide common curriculum through participation in the New Mexico Nursing Education Consortium (NMNEC).
Students in the UNM partnership BSN program of study (POS) will graduate with an associate degree in nursing (ADN) from
San Juan College and with a baccalaureate degree in nursing (BSN) from the University of New Mexico. In preparation for
BSN program application, the prerequisites and general education courses for application, selection and admission to the
baccalaureate degree nursing program are included in this packet. A minimum 30 institutional credit hours are required to be
taken through the University of New Mexico in the degree requirements for graduation. Please review the BSN program
curriculum with this application or contact Jana Harris (harrisjl@sanjuancollege.edu) for more details.
Students who graduate from the San Juan College/University of New Mexico Dual Degree Nursing Program will be eligible to
take the National Council Licensing Examination (NCLEX-RN) for licensure as a Registered Nurse (RN), and may continue on
to enroll in a master’s degree in nursing (MSN) program offered at select four-year institutions.

awarded based on the cumulative 26 credit hour prerequisite GPA.

Out-of-county residence, non-American Indian residence status, non-completion of Health Care Certificate = 0 Points
San Juan College Student Status: 12 or more prerequisite course credit hours completed at SJC = 30 Points

Science GPA: Combined GPA or 3.5 or higher from 8 credits in basic and health science courses = 20 Points
Less than 3.5 combined GPA from 8 credits in basic and health science courses = 0 Points

education records are defined as records that are directly related to a student and are maintained by an
educational institution. San Juan College has designated certain parts of a student’s education record as
“Directory Information,” (see below) which may be disclosed to third parties without the student’s
written permission. Student education records include, but are not limited to, course grades, billing
records, and disciplinary records.
In general, education records that are not designated Directory Information may be disclosed only to the
student unless the student provides written consent to disclose those records to other persons.
However, disclosure of non-directory information may be made to (1) an individual who claims the
student as a dependent on the individual’s federal income tax return, as defined in Section 152 of the
Internal Revenue Code, (2) to parents or legal guardians of a student who is under 21 years of age and
has been disciplined by the college for any alcohol or drug policy violations, and (3) to parents or legal
guardians of a student who is in a health and safety crisis.
