1. If you were a prior nursing student at any time in the past, a letter of reference is required from the Director of the previous program attended.
2. If you have any healthcare licenses/registrations, you will upload a screenshot or copy of your current or previous license/registration to the application.
3. Current CPR Card
If you are admitted to the nursing program you will need to submit a valid CPR card during your first week of classes.
You will need to obtain an official American Heart Association Healthcare Provider CPR card that is valid through the end of June of your first year of nursing school (this is the only card that will be accepted).
- Make sure this is the card you will receive from your training course. Peninsula College's course of FA 180 qualifies, however, this course may be taken elsewhere.
- The local hospital generally offers classes every month and offers a discount to nursing students. Contact the hospital education department for details and registration
- You will submit your card as a scanned copy or screenshot of the electronic copy provided to you as part of the class
- Renewal will be required for the second year of the nursing program and will be the responsibility of the student. If you take your CPR course during the summer after you are admitted to the program, it will last throughout the entire nursing program.
