Nursing programs at Collin County Community College District
Federal completion data shows nursing credentials awarded at these levels: practical nursing (LPN/LVN) certificate or diploma, associate degree in nursing (ADN), and bachelor’s degree in nursing (BSN). In the most recent reporting year, the school reported about 39 practical nursing completers, about 172 associate-degree nursing graduates, and about 30 bachelor’s-level nursing graduates. Offering both associate and bachelor’s pathways under one roof can make it easier to start with an ADN, earn your RN license, and move on to a BSN later; our ADN vs. BSN guide explains how to weigh the two.
Cost and student outcomes
Published tuition and fees are about $2,000 a year for in-state students and $6,100 for out-of-state students. The average net price (what students receiving federal aid pay after grants and scholarships) is about $10,700 a year. About 16% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants. Students who finish the associate level and borrow leave with median federal loan debt of about $6,800. Federal earnings data puts median pay for those associate-level nursing graduates at roughly $76,600 one year after finishing and $87,100 four years out. These are estimates for graduates with reported earnings, not a promise. Schoolwide, about 21% of first-time, full-time students finish within 150% of normal time.
Applying and licensure
The federal data does not report an overall admission rate for this school, which is typical of open-access colleges. Expect the nursing program to have its own application, prerequisite courses, and limited seats. Our guide to getting into nursing school explains what programs typically look for. To work as a nurse in Texas, graduates apply for a license with the Texas Board of Nursing and pass the NCLEX. Before you commit, verify the program’s ACEN or CCNE accreditation and state approval, and compare it with other options on our Texas nursing schools page.
