The CMU-Mid Michigan College Joint Nursing Education Pathway (JNEP) program is designed as a partnership with the Mid Michigan College (MID) associate degree nursing program (ADN/RN) and CMU’s RN-to-BSN program. The JNEP is a three-phase program.  In phase one, students take their general education and nursing prerequisite courses at CMU.  Phase two occurs at Mid Michigan College when the student begins coursework in the ADN/RN program.  Phase two ends when the student graduates from the ADN/RN program and passes the NCLEX-RN examination.  In phase three, students complete their BSN coursework at CMU and graduate from the RN-to-BSN program.  

Students work closely with their academic advisor and the CMU Nursing program to plan their application to the MID’s Nursing program.  Before a student can apply to MID’s Nursing Program, they must be enrolled in the JNEP program through CMU.  Through the JNEP agreement, MID holds a designated number of spots each semester for CMU students in the JNEP program.  Students cannot independently apply to MID through the JNEP without enrolling in the JNEP program at CMU and having their information forwarded to MID by the CMU Nursing Program Director.  All students seeking to enroll in the JNEP program must meet with the CMU Nursing Program Director after declaring their major.
