Paramedic to Nurse
The Paramedic-to-Nurse Program allows experienced paramedics to transition into nursing through specialized bridge courses. Students must have two years of paramedic experience and complete nursing prerequisites to be eligible for admission. After completing bridge coursework and general education requirements with a C or better, students can continue into the Associate Degree Nurse program and work toward becoming a Registered Nurse in North Dakota.
