Apply to the Nursing Program

Once you apply to TTC, you will be given access to the my.tridenttech.edu student portal. A section of your student portal is devoted to academics and your academic site is Nursing. Within the Nursing academic site, all students wishing to enter a Nursing program should review the Nursing Program Admission Requirements and Application Process, which explains how to apply to one of our programs and other important points. After reviewing this information, students may use the online application found in the portal under My Education > Academic Programs and Sites to apply for the Nursing program of choice.

There is no deadline for applying to the Nursing program. Admission to the Nursing program is on a first-qualified, first-admitted basis.

Pre-Nursing

Students using the Pre-Nursing Certificate as their admission option must complete the Pre-Nursing Certificate courses before applying to the PN or ADN program.
