Any Tennessee College of Applied Technology - nursing program student who was previously suspended for failing to meet academic standards in the nursing program must reapply for admission to return to the program. If the student is seeking readmission to the first term, the regular application process will apply. The applicant will be required to attend an information session and submit the necessary applications. References, transcripts, and HESI scores are considered valid for two years from the time of their initial receipt.
If an individual seeks to reapply to the second or third trimester of the nursing program, the applicant must complete the Tennessee College of Applied Technology - application and return it to the Health Careers Department. The student must also include a letter requesting readmission to the specific term.
The Nursing Coordinator will review each case and may recommend readmission to the school President. Criteria that the Nursing Coordinator will consider in determining readmission include demonstration of the student’s willingness to address the deficiencies that contributed to the prior suspension and assessment of the likelihood that the readmitted student may succeed.
Any student suspended for poor attendance must sit out one full term before being readmitted to the program. Any student suspended for academic failure may request readmission to the next available class. Readmission is dependent upon clinical availability and is not guaranteed. Re-enrollment is determined on a first-come, first-served basis.
Any student who has been suspended twice from the nursing program due to violation of attendance, academic, and/or clinical performance may be denied readmission. After a period of five years from the date of the second termination, an individual may apply to the nursing program and be given consideration for readmission. Transfer credit for this admission will not be considered.
