About this program
South College – Marietta delivers its Practical Nursing certificate from the 1850 Parkway Place campus, which opened in 2025 about 20 miles northwest of the Atlanta site along the I-75 corridor. The program combines core nursing theory with skills-lab and clinical training toward NCLEX-PN eligibility. As one of the college's newest campuses — it celebrated its first graduating class in June 2026 — Marietta lets PN completers progress into its ASN and BSN programs.
