OPTION OVERVIEW<br />
This program includes 35 credits of nursing theory and clinical practice in health<br />
care facilities. NUR111, Nursing I, requires clinical practice six (6) hours per week.<br />
NUR112, NUR211 and NUR212, Nursing II, III and IV, each require clinical practice<br />
twelve (12) hours per week. Students must earn a grade of 78 or higher in all NUR<br />
courses with the exception of NUR100, in which students must earn a grade of<br />
80 or higher. Students who fail to meet either the clinical objective or the grade<br />
requirement of an NUR course fail that course. To ensure currency, credits for<br />
BIO203, 204 and 205 earned more than �ve years prior to enrollment in the nursing<br />
clinical sequence are not accepted. Note that there are many requirements<br />
that must be met for acceptance to the nursing programs. These requirements<br />
are spelled out in detail in the Associate in Science Degree: Nursing Program<br />
description preceding this grid.<br />
CRIMINAL OFFENDER RECORD INFORMATION AND<br />
EX OFFENDER REGISTRY INFORMATION CHECKS<br />
As a prerequisite for a clinical placement in the Nursing program, all students<br />
must undergo a Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) check and a Sex<br />
Offender Registry Information (SORI) check. These checks are required due to<br />
potential unsupervised contact with children, the disabled, or the elderly during<br />
a clinical experience. Students found to have certain criminal convictions or<br />
pending criminal actions will be presumed ineligible for clinical placement. The<br />
<strong>College</strong> is authorized by the Commonwealth’s Department of Criminal Justice<br />
Information Services, pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 6,<br />
Sections 167-178 B, to access CORI records. Sex Offender checks shall be<br />
performed pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 6, Sections<br />
178C-178P.<br />
For more <strong>info</strong>rmation regarding the <strong>College</strong>’s CORI/SORI check process, please<br />
contact the <strong>College</strong> CORI/SORI Of�cer at 617-228-2193.<br />
