Nursing programs at ATA College-Cincinnati
The nursing offerings tracked in federal data here are the practical nursing (LPN/LVN) certificate or diploma and associate degree in nursing (ADN). Recent annual completions came to about 109 practical nursing completers and about 64 associate-degree nursing graduates. Programs at this level are the faster, lower-cost way into the profession: an ADN typically takes about two years once prerequisites are done, and many graduates later add a bachelor’s through an RN-to-BSN program.
Cost and student outcomes
Published tuition and fees are about $14,200 a year. The average net price (what students receiving federal aid pay after grants and scholarships) is about $27,500 a year. About 89% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants. Students who finish the associate level and borrow leave with median federal loan debt of about $23,800. Federal earnings data puts median pay for those associate-level nursing graduates at roughly $71,100 one year after finishing and $82,600 four years out. These are estimates for graduates with reported earnings, not a promise. Schoolwide, about 38% of first-time, full-time students finish within 150% of normal time.
Applying and licensure
The federal data does not report an overall admission rate for this school, so ask the admissions office how applicants are evaluated. Admission to the nursing major or program is often a separate, competitive step with prerequisites, minimum grades, and capped enrollment. Check deadlines with the nursing department, and read our nursing school requirements guide to prepare. After graduation, the path to a license goes through the state board of nursing in Ohio and the NCLEX exam. Ask the program about its accreditation (ACEN or CCNE) and state approval, and see how it stacks up against other nursing schools in Ohio.
