Clarksville or any area TN Technoly LPN programs

I went to the Tennessee Tech Center of Morristown (East TN), I waited about a year to get into the program. I got an alternate position after about 6 months but, everyone showed up for the first day of class. Since I was an alternate, my name went to the top of the list for the next class.

Where I went, It was first come, first serve. I took my NET test with 55 people and only 12 of us made it. Whoever applied for the nursing program first went to the top of the list and, whoever applied last went to the bottom. Don't stress and good luck. You may get stuck on a waiting list for a while but, you'll eventually get in. Oh, and if you do get put on an alternate list, go ahead and go in on the first day. I was told to wait by the phone and they would call me if they had an opening. But, after I got into the program I learned that, they picked the alternates standing in the hallway before they would call in an alternate for an opening. Your school may not be the same but, this is how mine worked. Good Luck, your in for a tough (but, rewarding) program.

That kinda sucks, to have to keep reapplying and taking the NET test. I'm glad Morristowns wasn't like that. Good Luck, I hope you get in.

tntech i was looking into the lpn program in clarksville but i am starting to have second thoughts on it and am considering just going to austin peay and getting my rn instead

I'm not sure! I applied at TN Tech Nashville in May for the LPN program and haven't heard anything back from them yet. Does anyone know how there program works? Is it first come first serve? Waiting list? Thanks

Hi tntech1, can you tell me what you had to do when you got your acceptance letter from tennessee tech? Did you have to send something in or call them or go to orientation??
