Program approval refers to an evaluation of an education program by a governmental organization to determine if it meets the state’s standards. The Associate Degree Nursing Program leads to Registered Nurse licensure and is approved by the Oklahoma Board of Nursing.  The Bachelor of Science in Nursing Program only admits Registered Nurses; therefore, approval by a governmental agency is not necessary or required.
