Health Manpower Shortage - Maryland designates this program as a Health Manpower Shortage program. Students who are Maryland residents may apply for a waiver of the out-of-county tuition differential for program courses. First consideration will be given to candidates who are residents of Anne Arundel County at the time of application.

State-of-the-Art Laboratories - Our students practice simulated nursing skills in a college lab with state-of-the-art equipment.

Transfer - LPN to RN articulation model: Practical nurses with an active unencumbered Maryland or compact LPN license articulating to the associate degree level and who complete the prerequisites for the RN program at AACC have the option to challenge several of the first-year nursing courses, offering them the opportunity to progress to the second year of the nursing program if they are successful in these challenge exams. Please note: Two years of work experience as a Licensed Practical Nurse is required to be eligible to apply to our LPN to RN program.
