The process for applying has changed for the 2010 application year. We are now going to a “Complete Application Packet” format. Students must submit all documents below in one envelope to be considered for the program. Even if you have applied before and/or are currently enrolled, we will need all documents resubmitted to one of several locations: 1) The Office of Admissions (Cooper Campus) 200 Oswald Building; 2) The One Stop Student Service Center (Leestown Campus), Building C; 3) The Lawrenceburg campus; or 4) The Danville campus October 1, 2009 for the Spring 2010 class and March 1, 2010 for the Fall 2010 class in order to be considered for admission. Only complete packets will be processed and considered for the program.
Gather all of the documents required for consideration of the Nursing LPN program below and place in the large envelope provided:
- Print the Information Letter and the Letter of Intent Checklist below and submit the checklist with your packet
