Nursing programs at Saint Michael College of Allied Health
Federal completion data shows nursing credentials awarded at these levels: practical nursing (LPN/LVN) certificate or diploma and associate degree in nursing (ADN). In the most recent reporting year, the school reported about 22 practical nursing completers and about 12 associate-degree nursing graduates. Programs at this level are the faster, lower-cost way into the profession: an ADN typically takes about two years once prerequisites are done, and many graduates later add a bachelor’s through an RN-to-BSN program. That is a relatively small annual graduating class, so ask how many seats open each year.
Cost and student outcomes
Published tuition and fees are about $19,400 a year. The average net price (what students receiving federal aid pay after grants and scholarships) is about $40,300 a year. About 30% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants. Students who finish the associate level and borrow leave with median federal loan debt of about $15,500. Schoolwide, about 82% of first-time, full-time students finish within 150% of normal time and 80% return for a second year.
Applying and licensure
The school admits most applicants (about 75% overall), but that does not mean a nursing seat is guaranteed. 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 District of Columbia, graduates apply for a license with the state board of nursing in District of Columbia 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 District of Columbia nursing schools page.
