1 ARTICULATION AGREEMENT Between Chamberlain College of Nursing and Suffolk County Community College For Transfer of Suffolk County Community College's Associate of Applied Science Degree in Nursing Statement of Purpose The purpose of this articulation is to provide a basis for a cooperative relationship between CCN and SCCC to benefit students who desire to complete a bachelor's degree. The intent is for SCCC students completing the AS degree plan to move seamlessly to the BSN degree plan. Transfer Agreement Associate Degree and Diploma program graduates are awarded 82 credit hours in accordance with the Chamberlain College Articulation Plan (CCAP). The credit hours awarded reflect credit hours for courses, general education and nursing, currently in the CCN BSN program representing essential content for a basic nursing program. State boards of nursing require both general education and nursing concepts in a basic curriculum leading to eligibility for RN licensure. This content may be in specifically identified courses or threaded throughout the curriculum in other required coursework. Therefore, while CCAP credit hours awarded may appear to exceed the number of credit hours in a given associate or diploma program, they are representative of the content required by boards of nursing for a basic nursing program and are consistent with credit hours required for the CON BSN program. This articulation is made explicitly subject to the terms ofccn admission requirements, academic policies, program requirements, and course descriptions, including but not limited to the CCN academic catalog, student handbook and academic policy regarding transfer of external credit (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the "Chamberlain Policies"). In the event of any conflict between or among Chamberlain Policies or elsewhere in this articulation, the terms of the Chamberlain Policies shall prevail.
