Student Development Services >> Admissions
Allied Health and Nursing
Because admission to health programs is
competitive, applicants seeking admission to
health-related programs of study must satisfy
additional criteria not included in the section on
General Admission Requirements. All health program
admission criteria must be fulfilled and documentation
must be on file in the Admissions Office
by the application deadline listed for that program.
The scores listed for each measure are minimum scores needed to be considered for admission. Actual scores of those selected for the program may be higher than the stated minimums. Applicants not selected for admission to the program must reapply in order to be considered again during the next selection period. Applicants not selected are encouraged to meet with the dean of allied health and nursing or a member of the program faculty to discuss ways to improve their candidacy or to discuss other educational options. Applicants interested in the programs offered in the Division of Allied Health and Nursing should attend one of the monthly orientation sessions held in Student Affairs on the Athens Campus. These sessions are held on the second Monday of every month at 12:30 p.m. in Room 746. A separate information session is held for the Nursing program at 1:30 p.m. in Room 746 on the second Monday of each month. These information sessions may be available at the Elbert County Campus. Call (706) 213-2100 for dates and times.
Applicants for specific health-related programs
of study may be admitted to the college
prior to being officially accepted to their desired
programs of study. Enrollment in the college (but
not the program) allows students to complete any
learning support and required general core
courses. This process does not guarantee that students
will be accepted to the programs for which
they originally sought admission. These applicants
are institutionally accepted to the college as candidates
for competitive health programs.
