Competitive Admissions Process
With the exception of the Mammography and Nurse Aide programs, all health programs require a competitive admissions process.
A student must complete all prerequisites and gain competitive points in order to apply for program approval.
Students may apply only one time using their WebAdvisor account between the November 1st and January 30th application window.
If a student wishes to change the program that they applied to initially using the Student Health Program application, they must email healthproadmissions@faytechcc.edu to request a manual change to their application or may drop by HTC 169 to request the change of application.
Students may take the designated program-related courses at FTCC in the Associate in General Education-Health program as they prepare to compete. Students cannot graduate from the Associate in General Education -Health (A10300H) program. It is a holding program while preparing for the secondary application to the program of choice.
To be eligible to apply to compete for a seat in a health program, applicants must complete high school or GED and meet the following additional requirements in order to complete the “secondary” student health program application.
The application is located in your Student WebAdvisor Account on the main menu.
