Nursing programs at Mt San Antonio College
According to federal completion records, Mt San Antonio College awards nursing credentials at the associate degree in nursing (ADN) level. A recent year’s totals include about 109 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.
Cost and student outcomes
Published tuition and fees are about $1,400 a year for in-state students and $11,100 for out-of-state students. The average net price (what students receiving federal aid pay after grants and scholarships) is about $1,700 a year. About 37% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants. Students who finish the associate level and borrow leave with median federal loan debt of about $17,500. Federal earnings data puts median pay for those associate-level nursing graduates at roughly $103,100 one year after finishing and $109,500 four years out. These are estimates for graduates with reported earnings, not a promise. Schoolwide, about 45% of first-time, full-time students finish within 150% of normal time and 77% return for a second year.
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. Licensure runs through the California Board of Registered Nursing (for RN licensure) or the Board of Vocational Nursing and Psychiatric Technicians (for LVN licensure), and graduates sit for the NCLEX. Confirm that the specific program holds ACEN or CCNE accreditation and is approved by the state before you enroll. Compare other schools on our nursing schools in California page.
