WESTERVILLE, OH (August 6, 2019) Hondros College of Nursing will launch a new Direct Entry Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) option this fall. The Direct Entry ADN Option gives students the opportunity to become a registered nurse without prior nursing experience by earning their Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) in as few as 15 months if attending full time.

The Westerville (Columbus) campus of Hondros College of Nursing will host an Open House focused on the Direct Entry ADN Option on Saturday, August 10 from 10 a.m. to noon. This information session and transcript evaluation will be available for all interested students, who should RSVP through Facebook or a call 855-90-NURSE (855-906-8773). Prospective students attending must bring all unofficial transcripts from previously attended colleges.
