Programs at UCC

The college offers a variety of programs in Nursing. The UCC Nursing program is accredited by the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission. Over the past 15 years UCC has accumulated a pass percentage of over 95% for Licensed Practical Nurses and about 90% for Registered Nurses on the first try of the state licensing examinations. The college program recently became affiliated with the Oregon Consortium for Nursing Education (OCNE) which will make it possible to receive a bachelor's degree in Nursing without leaving the UCC campus.

Drug screening: All nursing students must successfully pass a drug screening test at the time of admission and are subject to random drug screening through out the program. Failure to submit to a random drug screen or having a positive drug screen will result in sanctions per the UCC Student Code of Conduct (721.3) The cost is covered by the student fees.
