The nursing program at Three Rivers College offers two paths to become a Registered Nurse. Current LPNs and Paramedics can advance their career with the RN Bridge program. Students with minimal or no nursing experience can take the full nursing program. Both paths lead to an Associate of Applied Science degree and the education needed to apply for licensure by examination as a registered nurse.
Application Deadline for the Poplar Bluff RN Bridge program: March 1, every year.
Application Deadline for the Sikeston RN Bridge program: March 1, 2027, and March 1, 2029.
You can begin the application process at any time during the year, but don’t wait until the last minute – classes fill up fast!
