The college announced earlier that they are bringing the Associate of Science in Nursing program to the Coffee and Ben Hill-Irwin Campuses starting in Fall 2023.  The RN program will be accepting 30 students starting Fall Semester 2023 on the Coffee Campus and Fall Semester 2024 a new cohort will begin on the Ben Hill-Irwin Campus.  The two campuses will rotate new classes every other year.  In September 2022, Coffee Regional Medical Center announced they were committing $300,000 payable over the next four years to the Wiregrass Tech Foundation North.  The pledge will support costs for the new RN program on the Coffee Campus.

 

 

Wiregrass started the RN program on the Valdosta Campus in the Spring of 2014 and has had great success The RN program at Wiregrass has been named the number one program in the state for 2023, 2022, 2020, and 2019 according to NursingProcess.org.

 

 

McDonald shared, “There is a great need for not only more nurses in these communities but also a need for local job training.  I am excited about students increasing their earning potential by receiving an ASN and I am excited about Wiregrass filling the gap to provide accessible education to his area.”
