More About the Program
Respiratory therapy is a selective admission, limited enrollment program which admits one class per year. Successful candidates are selected by an admissions committee. Students wishing to enter this program must complete an application packet available in the Admissions Office by February 28 of each year. The admissions committee will consider applications during two selection periods. The application deadline for priority selections is February 28 of each year. If seats are still available in the program following priority application reviews, secondary applications will be considered. The application deadline to be considered for the secondary selection period will be April 30 of each year.
Respiratory Therapy Application
Students accepted into the Respiratory Therapy collaborative program pay tuition directly to the Carver Career and Technical Center, not to BridgeValley. Admitted students will need to contact the financial aid counselor at Carver to discuss payments options. Financial aid is limited to Pell and Higher Education Adult Part-time Student (HEAPS) grants for students enrolled in the Carver cooperative programs. At this time, the Carver programs are not awarded the Promise Scholarship or WV Invests. However, students are eligible for the ACE Advantage Fund scholarship which is the equivalent of WV Invests. Direct all scholarship applicability questions to the financial aid counselor at Carver Career and Technical Education Center.
