Jersey College — Local services in Oro Valley

I was looking for a local nursing program in Tucson with in-person classes, small class size, and one that I could possibly complete in the shortest amount of time so I can sit my NCLEX and progress to life as a RN.

Enrolling into Jersey College was the best decision made to pursue my career in nursing and I am...
