Nurse 1-2-1 Process
Because of the collaboration between UW-Green Bay and NWTC, we offer a seamless transition between both colleges. When you're accepted into the Nurse 1-2-1 program, you'll be automatically accepted into the NWTC ADN program, and you won't have to transfer transcripts between institutions.
Year 1
Begin taking general education and nursing support courses during your first year at UW-Green Bay.
Years 2 & 3
In Years 2 and 3, you'll attend NWTC and complete an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN). You must maintain a 3.0 GPA during these years to continue in the program. After that, you can work as a registered nurse after passing the nursing licensure exam and while completing your BSN.
Year 4
Finish your degree at UW-Green Bay! Year 4 features asynchronous online courses with an onsite community health practicum arranged in an agency in your area. Our expert faculty will arrange your practicum site based on your preferences.
