Admission Procedures

  1. Submit a completed application and the $15 non-refundable application fee to the Admissions Office.
  2. Submit an official copy of high school transcript or official GED scores to the Admissions Office. (Transcript request forms are available in the Admissions Office.) and/or Submit an official copy of all college transcripts to the Admissions Office. Transcripts from all colleges attended for credit must be submitted. Veterans must submit a copy of Form DD214 to verify courses completed in the military. (Transcript request forms are available in the Admissions Office.)
  3. Take the ASSET placement test. In lieu of the ASSET, official scores on the SAT, ACT, COMPASS or CPE may be submitted. These scores may be accepted provided that they are no more than five years old. Official transcripts from a regionally accredited postsecondary institution documenting successful completion (a grade of C or better) in equivalent, program-level English and math courses may be submitted in lieu of taking the placement test. Reasonable accommodations are made during testing for those who need them. (Please notify the Admissions Office prior to the scheduled test date.)
  4. Applicants are processed and the names of applicants are placed on a list of programs on a first-come, first-served priority, except in competitive admission programs. Because of the increasing demand for technical training, the chances of being accepted in the desired program are better if a student applies early. Students are notified by mail of their acceptance into a program, and are mailed a time and date to report for registration. Some programs may not accept new students every quarter.

Note: Certain certificate programs do not require a high school diploma, GED, or placement test scores. Placement tests are not required for special admission (degree/diploma/certificate) students unless recommended by the Admissions Office. Recommendation will be based on educational data listed on the Application for Admission. Contact the Admissions Office for details.

Double Majors
Lanier Tech does not allow a student to enroll in two different programs at the same time. A student must complete all requirements for one program before applying and being accepted into another program.

Practical Nursing Transfer Students
Applicants to Lanier Tech who have been previously enrolled at a postsecondary institution and desire entrance into the Practical Nursing program must meet all admissions requirements of transfer students. In addition, these applicants must submit a letter of reference from their instructor at the previous institution and adhere to the competitive admission process used by the Practical Nursing program at Lanier Tech. Applicants will then be admitted on a space available basis within the appropriate course sequence.

Change of Program
Students desiring to change programs must complete the appropriate forms and meet all the admissions standards for their new program of study. If the program to which the student is attempting to transfer has a waiting list, the student will be placed on the list in accordance with the date of application for transfer. The student will be notified by the Director of Admissions of his/her admission status into the new program. Change of program forms should be submitted prior to the posted quarterly application deadline to ensure timely processing.

Disadvantaged & Disabled Students
Within a framework of personal guidance and evaluation, special services are provided for the disadvantaged and/or disabled student, and students with limited English proficiency. These services include aiding students in setting realistic goals, making reasonable accommodations, providing job orientation and placement, providing assistance in determining the degree and nature of the disability and/or disadvantage, and suggesting community service agencies for additional assistance. For further information, contact the Coordinator of Special Services/ADA in the Student Affairs Office on the Main Campus.

Readmission
A student who leaves the College in good standing may apply for readmission as early as the next academic quarter. This should be done through the Admission Office. Students who have been dismissed because of unsatisfactory academic progress may be readmitted after one quarter of absence from the School. A student suspended for disciplinary reasons may be considered for readmission at the end of the suspension by making an appeal through the Vice President for Student Affairs' Office. Readmission to a program will be granted on a space-available basis within the appropriate course sequence. A break in enrollment in excess of two quarters will require students to complete the curriculum in place at the time of re-enrollment.

Readmission to the Nursing Program
Students dropped from the Practical Nursing program for attendance (i.e., maternity, health related, family illness, personal difficulties), academic reasons or students who have made less than a "C" in a nursing course will be allowed to repeat the course(s) one time only. Readmission to the program will be granted on a space-available basis within the appropriate course sequence and will be based on the date the student applied for readmission.
