Can anyone attend to MNTC?
High school students can attend programs if they are on track to graduate with their class at their high school and if they meet the minimum requirements for the program they apply to.
High School Applicants must meet the following requirements to be considered for admission:
- Applicants with grades of F, Incomplete, No Credit or Unsatisfactory on their transcripts will not be eligible for admission unless they have retaken or are currently enrolled in those courses, including summer school.
- Applicants currently retaking a course who are accepted will be admitted on the condition that they pass all courses, including those being retaken.
- All applicants must have passed their spring semester courses.
Do I have to have straight A’s to be accepted?
No. Students do not have to earn straight A’s to be considered for MNTC. Admission is based on multiple factors, including the application, interview, academic performance, and qualifying test scores. Students should focus on successfully completing their coursework and meeting MNTC’s current admissions requirements.
What are the minimum requirements?
If I apply, am I guaranteed admission?
MNTC is a school of choice, and our career programs are competitive. High school juniors and seniors from Norman and Moore Public Schools fill out applications for our programs each year, but with limited class sizes, seating every applicant is a challenge.
Because of this, it's important to know that not every applicant is accepted, even if they meet the qualifications. Testing for reading and math skills may also be required, based on program requirements.
What if I submit my application until after the deadline?
How will you contact me?
What should I expect from the interview?
The interview is a way for our interview team to get to know you and to better understand if the program to which you applied is right for you. This is not a high pressure environment and we want you to feel confident during this process. Please be prepared to talk about your interest in the program, your work ethic and any related experience you may have. Remember, we are on your team, so don’t stress!
Watch this video for interview tips.
When will I know about getting into the program I applied for?
Applicants will be notified on their status the last week of January. You will be emailed a letter of acceptance, alternate list or encouraged to apply again next year.
Please ensure we have the correct email address on file and please DO NOT use your school email address. Be sure to check all folders as this email can sometimes be found in junk/spam folders.
Can I attend college if I go to MNTC? Is CareerTech only for students who do not plan to attend college?
Absolutely! MNTC is for students with a variety of post-secondary goals. Many MNTC students go on to college, and some take concurrent college courses while enrolled in their MNTC program. MNTC provides hands-on experience, industry certifications, technical skills, and career exploration that can complement a college education. Whether students plan to enter the workforce, attend college, or do both, MNTC can help prepare them for their future.
How much does it cost?
High school students do not pay tuition if they are attending while they are in high school. Most supplies needed for your program will also be provided but any dress code requirements will be your financial responsibility. Please refer to the program cost sheets located on the website of every program for more information.
Graduates of Norman or Moore Public Schools can also attend tuition free through the Tuition Assistance program. Please contact Financial Aid for more information on this process.
Can I participate in sports, band, concurrent enrollment, or other extracurricular activities while attending MNTC?
Yes. Many MNTC students participate in athletics, band, clubs, concurrent enrollment, and other activities at their home high school. MNTC offers both morning and afternoon sessions, which can provide flexibility for students to stay involved. Students should work with their high school counselor to make sure their schedule supports their academic and extracurricular goals.
Can I get a job after I complete a MNTC program?
Absolutely! Our goal is to place 100% of our students in the career they have trained in or to see those students attend college. Our Career & College Connection Coordinator can help you get started on the job application process.
Can I enroll in more than one MNTC program?
Are MNTC classes just “fun” or exploratory classes? Do grades and attendance matter?
MNTC programs are rigorous career-training programs designed to prepare students for college, careers, and industry certifications. Although learning is hands-on and engaging, students are expected to maintain good grades, attend regularly, complete assignments, and demonstrate professionalism. Some programs also have certification exams, clinical experiences, or internships that require consistent attendance and effort.
Will attending MNTC affect my ability to earn the high school credits I need to graduate?
No. MNTC is designed to work alongside your high school schedule. Students attend MNTC for part of the school day and their home high school for the remainder, allowing them to continue working toward their graduation requirements. Students should work with their high school counselor to ensure their MNTC program fits into their academic plan.
What certifications or licenses can I earn at MNTC?
Credentials vary upon program. Check the specific career program page for a listing of credentials.
Many MNTC programs provide opportunities to earn industry-recognized certifications and licenses while still in high school.
Credentials can help students enter the workforce after graduation, gain valuable work experience, or continue their education. Many students with industry credentials gain a valuable head start and help them stand out to employers.
What if I don’t get accepted the first time I apply?
Don’t give up! Applicants who are not accepted can meet with their MNTC Representative, Career Advisor, or school counselor to discuss their options and identify ways to strengthen their application. Depending on the circumstances, applicants may be able to improve their academic record, interview skills, or other areas and apply again in the future.
When should I start planning to attend MNTC?
The earlier, the better! Applicants are encouraged to begin discussing their future plans with their high school counselor as early as freshman year. Early planning can help applicants understand program requirements, choose appropriate courses, and make sure their high school schedule supports their MNTC and graduation goals.
What if I’m struggling academically while attending MNTC?
Don’t wait to ask for help. Students who are struggling with grades, attendance, or other academic challenges should talk with their counselor, MNTC instructor, MNTC Representative, or Career Advisor. MNTC also offers support through the Student Success Center. Seeking help early can provide more opportunities to get back on track and continue working toward your goals.
