covers the remainder of the course<br />
content (passing is 78%). Students<br />

grades in other courses, the grade<br />
on the readiness exam, current GPA,<br />
and available seats. If admitted to the<br />
college, returning students can register<br />
for all non-nursing courses. However,<br />
they cannot register for the nursing<br />
courses until the end of the semester<br />
(after students presently in the program<br />
have registered and the number of<br />
available seats can be determined.)<br />
