Nursing (RN) ADN Transition Program - Paramedic Application

Complete the online application below and submit all documentation as required to be considered for May 2024 summer admission in the PHSC Nursing (RN) ADN Transition Program - Paramedic.

Application

Read instructions thoroughly and supply all documentation required to be considered for the Nursing (RN) ADN Transition Program - Paramedic.

Instructions and Important Information

Read all requirements and complete and submit this online application. Applicants must submit all limited access program admission requirements to be considered for review. Applicants who submit only part of an application or are missing required documents will not be processed, must reapply to the program, and repay the limited access application fee once all requirements are met.

Applicants who are offered a seat in the program and fail to respond by the date indicated on the offer letter or who fail to enroll for the term for which admission is offered must reapply for a future date. Qualified applicants are considered for all campuses/openings; however, applicants offered a seat are only offered a seat for one campus. Based on how many seats are available and the applicant’s overall ranking, they may or may not receive an offer for their preferred campus.

Applicants who meet minimum requirements as of the deadline date will be ranked based upon TEAS test scores and prerequisite GPA. Residents of Pasco and Hernando Counties will receive preference over out-of-county residents.
