THE SMART NURSING EDUCATION DESTINATION
EA’s nursing program prepares students for meaningful careers as registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants. Our graduates can be found working almost anywhere — hospitals, community health organizations, schools, and homes — positively impacting the quality of health care delivery. For students seeking to continue their education and pursue a RN-BSN degree, our concurrent enrollment programs with Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University, and Grand Canyon University allow EA students to obtain a Bachelor of Science in Nursing while completing an Associate of Applied Science in Nursing. Admission into EA’s nursing program requires a separate, prior admission process and space is limited.
The Program is Fully Accredited
Eastern Arizona College’s Nursing Program is accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN)*, the leading authority in nursing education accreditation recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation.
Small Classes. Lots of Support.
Half of our classes at EA have 10 or less students. You won’t get lost in a crowd here. You will be mentored by highly credentialed, dedicated faculty who make learning interesting and relevant and your success a priority. You’ll also have easy access to support services like academic counseling, faculty advising and free 24/7 tutoring. EA is a community that cares about your success, both in and out of class.
Really Affordable Tuition. High Quality Education.
Zero—that’s the amount of debt most Eastern Arizona College students graduate with! Our tuition is 75% less than state universities and a fraction of the cost of trade schools. You’ll save a lot on tuition, but you won’t sacrifice quality. EA students enjoy high acceptance and degree completion rates at their top university choices and higher than national average pass rates on professional certification exams.
