Welcome from the School of Nursing at South Georgia State College.

Our 72-semester credit hour program prepares students to take the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses. Successful completion entitles one to practice nursing and use the title, Registered Nurse (RN). An LPN-RN bridge program is available to students possessing a current Georgia LPN license and meeting all admission requirements for the Division of Nursing. We also offer the RN-BSN program for students who are licensed as a Registered Nurse.

South Georgia State College’s Associate Degree Nursing Program is approved by the

Georgia Board of Nursing
237 Coliseum Drive

and the RN-BSN has initial approval. The ASN program is accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC) and the RN-BSN program is in Candidacy. Information regarding the accreditation status of nursing programs may be obtained by contacting the NLNAC,
