Pre-Application Information Sessions

All in-person information sessions will be held at the MTECH Practical Nursing building located at 2801 Ashton Blvd, Lehi, Utah. The information sessions provide an opportunity for potential students to learn more about the MTECH Practical Nursing Program and ask any questions about the application process or the program. Each information session will be approximately 60 minutes in duration.

We highly recommend attendance at one of the in-person information sessions, however, if you are unable to attend one of the in-person information sessions, there will be one virtual session available per application cycle. If you are interested in attending the virtual session, please RSVP to nursing@mtec.edu and include your email address. You will be sent an invitation to join the session a day or two before the scheduled virtual session. If you have attended an information session within 6 months of your application you will receive a point on your application whether you attend in person or virtually.
