The San Bernardino Valley College Nursing program provides opportunities for students in the SBVC Nursing program to be concurrently enrolled at a partner university so they can complete Associate's and Bachelor's courses simultaneously. Currently, we are partnered with California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB), Grand Canyon University (GCU), and Loma Linda School of Nursing (LLUSN).

  • Note: Acceptance and enrollment into the SBVC ADN program is required prior to enrollment in a Concurrent Enrollment Program.
