Second Courser Program: Yes, but with age limit (not more than 30 years old). Unlike the second-courser programs of University of San Agustin, Saint Paul's University of Iloilo, University of Iloilo, and Central Philippine University, IDC's program breaks up second-courser nursing students into two groups: (1) graduates of medical courses (e.g., physical therapy, medical technology, dentistry, medicine) and (2) graduates of non-medical courses (e.g., education, engineering, mass communications, political science). Besides this "segregation scheme," second-coursers from both groups also don't mix with "regular" students (that is, those who haven't obtained a previous degree); they have separate sections.
 
Night Class for Second Coursers: None

Master's Degree Program:
None

School Fees per Semester:
First Year - P20,000 to P22,000; Second Year - P26,000 to P28,000; Third Year - P36,000 to P38,000; Fourth Year - P40,000 to P42,000.  

PNLE Performance: Average. In recent years, the overall performance of IDC's College of Nursing in the PNLE has been slightly lackluster.
