Transfer Requirements

These A.A. and A.S. guides are designed to facilitate transfer to ETSU unless otherwise noted. Students who intend to transfer to a different institution should consult their advisor and the receiving institution for specific course selections.

Please note that the completion of the pre-nursing community college curriculum and the subsequent courses taken at a university do not guarantee acceptance into a baccalaureate nursing program. Nursing is a highly competitive major, and only the most highly qualified students are admitted. The specific requirements for admission to university nursing programs may be found in the catalogs of the various universities.
