The College Network (TCN) has developed an alternative to the traditional college education. By using our Comprehensive Learning Module Program, you can learn the majority of the required college material in the comfort of your own home, at your own pace. Once you have mastered the content of our Comprehensive Learning Modules, you will be ready to take equivalency exams at a local testing center (CLEP®, Excelsior College® Examination, DANTES), and earn college credit without ever stepping into a college classroom.
Then you will be able to transfer your college credit into the NLNAC approved nursing school and complete your degree. Our educational materials are developed by professors from leading universities, so there is no need for textbooks. We guarantee your academic success for the TCN portion of the program, and financing is available to everyone.
