There is a Linfield Advisor in Salem who is readily available to help students map out their education from Chemeketa to Linfield College’s bachelor’s degrees and certificates. The Linfield advisor recognizes that everyone has a unique situation and will work with each student to decide whether or not you want to complete your Associate Degree first, and then transfer to Linfield College for your Bachelor’s degree, or if you are ready to transfer now to the Bachelor’s degree. Learn about the transition from an associate's to a bachelor's degree in our blog article by Linfield Advisor Virginia MacCallum.
RN to BSN Program
Linfield also partners with Chemeketa for graduates of the Nursing Associate of Applied Science degree who want to earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree. Students who complete Chemeketa’s Nursing Associate of Applied Science degree and pass the NCLEX-RN to become registered nurses (RN), are provisionally admitted to Linfield College’s Online RN to BSN degree. The Chemeketa – Linfield Articulation Agreements spell out the transfer of credits and the provisional admission for Chemeketa graduates.
New in October, 2010. Chemeketa nursing students who have been admitted to the AAS in Nursing degree, and who would like to establish Dual Admission at Linfield College are encouraged to submit the “Chemeketa/Linfield Degree Partnership Application.” Dual admission means that you may take one course per semester at Linfield, while continuing toward completion of the Associate Degree in Nursing at Chemeketa, and your financial aid at Chemeketa will include the Linfield credits as part of your total number of credits when determining your award. Gaining dual admission means that you are provisionally admitted to Linfield College, for a seamless transition after completion of the Associate Degree directly into the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree at Linfield. The RN-BSN program of study is provided online by Linfield College Adult Degree Program.
