Alpha Delta Nu Honor Society
Mission & Vision
The mission of the Alpha Delta Nu Nursing Honor Society is to recognize the academic excellence of students in the study of Associate Degree Nursing. The society encourages the pursuit of advance degrees in the profession of nursing as well as continuing education as a life-long professional responsibility.
Starting and Managing an Alpha Delta Nu Chapter
Alpha Delta Nu is the ONLY honor society for Associate Degree
Nursing students. All OADN Member programs are encouraged to establish a chapter at your college to acknowledge student excellence. As part of the induction process, students take part in implementing service- learning projects that directly impact the health of their communities.
Additionally, Sigma Theta Tau offers an accelerated pathway for Alpha Delta Nu inductees.
Below are the primary chapter start-up resources. Additional information will be provided once the chapter is approved and active. Please contact OADN staff with any questions.
