Conditional Approval

In the event that a Coordinated Entry Program does not have enough students to fill their cohort for the upcoming term, the CNM School of Health, Wellness, & Public Safety reserves the right to allow students who have not completed all entrance requirements to be approved to register for a program on a conditional basis. This is a practice that may vary from program to program, and students would be evaluated on a case by case basis.

  • The decision as to which program requirements would be deferred for entry are determined by the School of Health, Wellness, & Public Safety Leadership Team and the Program Director. If you meet the program requirements determined by the School of Health, Wellness, & Public Safety Leadership Team and the Program Director you will receive a “Conditional Approval” to register for the program.

Conditional Approval would provide a student with the approval to register for a program but would require them to complete the deferred entrance requirements by a set deadline. Additionally, a student who has received a conditional approval may be required to meet with an Achievement Coach and/or the Program Director to develop a success plan. Failure to complete the deferred entrance requirements by the set deadline, or failure to comply with the success plan direction may jeopardize the student’s seat in the program.

*The CNM Nursing program is excluded from Conditional Approvals as their entry requirements are established and regulated by the New Mexico Nursing Education Consortium (NMNEC).
