Students are required to earn a minimum of 135 college-level credits with a 2.0 grade point average to graduate.

Important Notice:

Completion of this degree allows a student to be eligible to take the National Council Licensure Examination-Registered Nurse (NCLEX-RN) for licensure as a Registered Nurse. Passing the NCLEX-RN exam and completion of this transfer degree provide the general education and nursing courses for direct transfer with only one additional year of study to complete the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (RN-to-BSN pathway). Baccalaureate institutions party to this agreement are: Washington State University, University of Washington - Bothell & Tacoma, Western Washington University, Bellevue College, Olympic College, Lewis-Clark State College, St. Martin’s University, Western Governors University, Columbia Basin College, and Wenatchee Valley College.

Note that admission to an RN-to-BSN program may be competitive and application deadlines vary; therefore, no particular GPA can guarantee admission to any specific program. Certain schools may have additional university-specific requirements for admission to the institution that are not prerequisites specifically identified in the DTA requirements.

Residence Requirements for Transfer Degrees:
