For our Healthcare Management programs any pre-requisites will be
determined at the time of your evaluation – the evaluation committee
will take into consideration any life experience and transfer credits you
may have. You will most likely be able to begin your degree course work
immediately, but a detailed course plan will be made for you to ensure
you have a successful journey at American Sentinel.

4. DEGREE PLAN AND TOTAL CREDIT HOURS: Once American Sentinel
receives the necessary documents (your application, resume, copy of
your RN license if applicable, and official transcripts), you will receive an
email from an admissions advisor with a degree plan.

This plan shows all courses from your transcript that will transfer in and
all courses you will need to take. This will be your guide for earning your
degree.

Total credits needed to graduate:

Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing Degree: 120 credits

Master’s Degree: 36 credits
Doctor of Nursing Practice: 42 credits

Infection Prevention and Control Certificate: 15 credits
MBA Healthcare, Project-based: No credit hours. Students complete
four self-directed projects that can be completed in less than a year.

5. NON TRADITIONAL DEGREES: American Sentinel offers two non-
traditional programs – a certificate in Infection Prevention & Control (IPC)
and a project-based MBA Healthcare program.

The IPC Certificate program consists of five courses that give students
the skills to assess, plan and manage infection prevention and control
efforts within their organizations and communities. The program can be
finished in as little as ten months (assuming the student completes one
course at a time).
