FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- Fresno State is expanding its nursing program into the South Valley.

Students from nearby community colleges like College of the Sequoias, Porterville College and West Hills-Lemoore can join the program.
The university said the program is working to address a shortage of qualified registered nurses who have a Bachelor's degree in nursing.
