ADN Transfer Student Admission Policy

  • The Transfer student must meet general admission requirements of CTC and the DHS.
  • Paperwork must be on file 6 months prior to the start date of the semester you are requesting entry.
  • Apply in writing to the CTC ADN Admissions and Standards Committee requesting admission to the Program.
  • Submit official or unofficial transcripts showing completed nursing courses along with grades. Nursing coursework cannot be over two years old.
  • Provide CTC DHS with an official letter from the dean/director of previous nursing school and last clinical professor validating safe nursing practice.
  • Provide a syllabus or learning guide for each course requested for transfer credit to the DHS. These documents must detail course content, credit hours, lab hours, clinical hours, and skills.
  • Acknowledge that placement in the nursing program will be dependent upon space availability and recommendations from the ADN Admissions and Standards Committee.
  • A student dismissed from a previous nursing program for unsafe clinical practice will not be considered for admission.
  • Once all requirements have been met, your record will be reviewed, and the final decision to accept or deny admission as well as your course placement and start date will be determined by the Admissions and Standards Committee.
  • A letter granting transfer credit does not serve as acceptance into the CTC ADN program. All other DHS General Admission requirements must be met as well to be considered for full admission.
  • Must complete 25% of the degree plan at CTC to meet residency requirements.
  • Transfer students will only be accepted at the ADN I or ADN II semester in the program.
  • After enrollment, a transfer student who does not successfully complete any nursing course or withdraws from a nursing course with a failing average will adhere to the readmission policy as detailed under “ADN and VN Readmission Policy.”
