Aultman College of Nursing and Health Sciences

What is the accreditation of Aultman College of Nursing and Health Sciences?

Aultman College's institutional accreditor is the Higher Learning Commission (HLC). Institutional accreditation evaluates the college as a whole; it is different from accreditation of an individual nursing, radiography or other professional program.

That distinction has practical consequences. Institutional accreditation is relevant to federal student-aid eligibility and may matter when another college reviews transfer credit, but it does not require another institution to accept every course. In licensed professions, students should separately confirm their exact program's current specialized accreditation and whether it meets the licensing requirements of the state where they intend to practice.

What are the admission requirements at Aultman College of Nursing and Health Sciences?

Aultman College does not report an open-admission policy. First-time degree-seeking applicants should expect a review of their secondary-school record and GPA, along with proof of high school completion or an accepted equivalent.

Its 2024-25 admissions reporting classified admission test scores as required. That is a reporting-year description, not a substitute for the rules governing a particular application cycle or program. In the reported entering class, 79% of enrolled first-time students submitted ACT scores, and the median composite score among reported scores was 21.

The same reporting identified English-language testing requirements for applicants to whom they apply, while class rank and recommendations were neither required nor recommended. Applicants should check their intended program's current instructions for test policies, deadlines, prerequisite courses and any additional steps before applying. In the reported admissions cycle, 128 of 279 first-time applicants were admitted, an acceptance rate of about 46%; that rate does not predict an individual applicant's result.

What are the application fees and waivers at Aultman College of Nursing and Health Sciences?

Applicants should review the fee shown in Aultman College's current application instructions before submitting an application. Application charges and waiver procedures can differ by applicant category or application method.

An application fee is separate from tuition, required course expenses and any deposit requested after admission. An applicant who needs a waiver should ask admissions whether one is available and how to request it before paying; a waiver should not be assumed to apply automatically.

What types of ROTC programs are available at Aultman College of Nursing and Health Sciences?

Aultman College is not identified as operating its own Army, Air Force or Navy ROTC unit. Students interested in commissioning should not assume they can participate through the college without a confirmed cross-enrollment arrangement.

ROTC participation through another institution, where permitted, generally involves separate eligibility rules, scheduling and an application to the host program. Scholarships may carry military service obligations. A prospective student should obtain confirmation from both Aultman College and the relevant host ROTC unit before building an academic plan around that option.

What are the requirements for transfer students at Aultman College of Nursing and Health Sciences?

Aultman College generally accepts transfer credit from other accredited institutions and reports transfer entry in fall, spring and summer. It also reports accepting CLEP subject examination credit. Admission as a transfer student does not mean every previous course will satisfy a degree requirement.

Transfer applicants should be prepared to submit official transcripts from each college attended and to identify the program they want to enter. For a health-professions program, the critical evaluation is often whether prior science, general-education and clinical coursework matches its prerequisites and required sequence. Request a written, program-specific credit evaluation before relying on an expected graduation date.

The college reported 66 transfer-in degree- or certificate-seeking undergraduates in its 2024-25 enrollment figures. That suggests transfer entry is a regular route, though it says nothing by itself about how much credit an individual student will receive.

What types of study abroad programs are available at Aultman College of Nursing and Health Sciences?

Students should not assume that a conventional semester-abroad pathway is built into an Aultman College degree. The college's health-focused curricula may include sequential courses and clinical requirements that make time away difficult to fit into a standard plan.

Anyone considering an outside international program should seek academic approval before committing to it. The questions are whether the coursework will transfer, whether it can fulfill a specific degree requirement and whether participating would delay clinical progression or affect financial-aid eligibility.
