Nursing

The EPCC nursing division has been educating nurses in the El Paso community since 1972. Our graduates work in multiple acute care, transitional, and community settings in the El Paso community and beyond. Our graduates have become advanced practice nurses, nursing administrators, educators, community leaders, and expert clinicians.

Our programs offer highly qualified faculty, state-of-the-art facilities, outstanding student services, and affordable tuition and fees. Additionally, the first-time NCLEX pass rates for our programs are consistently above the national averages.

EPCC is the best place to start and finish your nursing degree!
