• Early College + LPN Certificate Pathway

  The Early College Program (ECP) + Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) Certificate Pathway at New England Tech gives high school students the chance to begin practical nursing coursework while in high school. Unlike other ECP students, participants in this pathway start one term earlier and then complete their LPN program requirements one term after high school graduation.

  This structure allows students to save on tuition, gain hands-on clinical experience sooner, and start their career in healthcare faster.

  The deadline to apply for ECP + LPN is April 1, 2026 (one month before the regular ECP deadline). Applicants must take the Kaplan Nursing Admissions Test by May 1, 2026.
