Nursing and Health Science programs have special admissions requirements. Detailed admissions overview documents for each competitive program are published on the OCtech website. As an initial step to the process, prospective students apply to the College and once accepted, are assisted with navigating the competitive application requirements with the assistance of a New Student Advisor. Current students can access additional information about the competitive admissions process by visiting a dedicated space in D2L called the Virtual Student Center which is designed to offer comprehensive guidance and resources. Using this online platform, students can navigate through various sections detailing the requirements, procedures, and criteria for admission to competitive programs. Additionally, they can find tips and strategies to better understand how to enhance their candidacy and increase their chances of gaining acceptance. Individualized support is offered through faculty advisement to assist students with understanding the process and requirements prior to applying.
Due to the limited availability of admission slots in these programs at OCtech, curriculum admission is competitive; and applicants are advised to apply when they are most competitive.
