Focused Career Training Programs
No matter which skilled allied health profession you’re interested in, CNI College is committed to providing academic excellence, with structured support throughout your program. And all of that starts here, with enrollment and admissions.
Our Admissions Process
Let’s talk about how you go from being interested in attending CNI to being admitted and getting started.
Step 1: Request more information.
If you haven’t already, your starting place is right here on this site. The moment you submit our Request Information form, you’re on your way.
Step 2: Fill out our questionnaire.
We ask all our applicants to complete a potential student questionnaire form so we have a clearer picture of your career goals and what you’re looking for in your education.
Step 3: Complete an interview and a campus tour.
One of our admissions advisors will reach out to you to have a one-on-one conversation about your situation and program of interest and to set up a tour of our campus.
Step 4: Prep your finances and any other paperwork.
Once your application has been accepted, you can work with our financial aid team to hash out the best ways to cover education costs. You’ll also turn in your Enrollment Agreement and documentation of any required health exams, tests, or vaccines.
Step 5: Join us in the classroom and get started!
When your first day of classes arrives, we’ll be ready and waiting to welcome you!
