Georgetown American University's Associate of Science in Nursing prepares students for entry-level registered nursing practice, with training built around the Associate Degree in Nursing standard needed to sit the Guyana Nursing Council Exam or the NCLEX-RN licensing exam. Coursework is framed around foundational workplace competencies, covering practical, analytical and interpersonal abilities alongside the resource-management and technology skills nurses rely on day to day. Admission is open to applicants who hold a high school diploma or GED and are at least 17 years old, and who complete and file an application with the School of Nursing. Candidates must also clear a police background check or provide a minimum level-one fingerprint clearance card and pass a drug screening. Qualifying academic scores from CSEC, GSCE, COMPASS, ASSET, SAT or ACT feed into the eligibility review. Graduates who pass their licensing exam go on to practice as registered nurses in clinical settings.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: High school diploma or GED, minimum age 17; completed application to the School of Nursing; police clearance or minimum level-one fingerprint clearance card; drug screening; qualifying scores from CSEC, GSCE, COMPASS, ASSET, SAT or ACT.
