“I decided to attend Cabarrus College for their incredible ADN program and decided to come back for my BSN. The decision to choose Cabarrus College for a second time was truly a no-brainer. The exceptional education I received for my ADN is mirrored in their BSN program. The small class sizes and well-prepared faculty provide students with the best possible learning environment. The faculty knew my name, knew details about my life, and really helped influence the type of nurse I became.”

There was so much balance in this program that I longed for in others. I believe this degree opened many new doors for me and I would recommend anyone on the fence to take the plunge. You will not regret it, and the Cabarrus College team is there to help you the entire way.”
