Nursing programs at Chattahoochee Technical College
According to federal completion records, Chattahoochee Technical College awards nursing credentials at the practical nursing (LPN/LVN) certificate or diploma and associate degree in nursing (ADN) levels. A recent year’s totals include about 155 practical nursing completers and about 42 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 $3,500 a year for in-state students and $6,100 for out-of-state students. The average net price (what students receiving federal aid pay after grants and scholarships) is about $5,200 a year. About 38% of undergraduates receive Pell Grants. Federal earnings data puts median pay for those associate-level nursing graduates at roughly $87,500 one year after finishing and $88,300 four years out. These are estimates for graduates with reported earnings, not a promise. Schoolwide, about 45% of first-time, full-time students finish within 150% of normal time and 68% return for a second year.
Applying and licensure
The federal data does not report an overall admission rate for this school, which is typical of open-access colleges. 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. Licensure runs through the Georgia Board of Nursing, and graduates sit for the NCLEX. Confirm that the specific program holds ACEN or CCNE accreditation and is approved by the state before you enroll. Compare other schools on our nursing schools in Georgia page.
