Students will not earn any credential upon program <br />completion. <br />Most other states do not recognize California's 30-Unit option and will not issue a <br />Registered Nurse License. <br />Students who complete this 30-Unit option may find it difficult to advance their degrees should they want <br />to complete an RN-BSN or RN-MSN.
