Prospective Students

In order to be enrolled in a JATC program, you must be registered at a Jordan School District or Wasatch Front Consortium affiliated high school as per Jordan School District Policy AA447.

The JATC has two sessions per day.

Morning Session:            7:40 A.M to 10:00 A.M.

Afternoon Session:         11:30 A.M. to 1:45 P.M.

Busing is available to and from the JATC Campus for Jordan School District students.

JATC classes are held every day for 2 class periods, therefore, you will need to block out 4 periods of your 8 period schedule.  Please make sure you have the time necessary to enroll in a JATC program by checking your graduation status with your high school counselor.  Concurrent enrollment is available for most programs but is subject to change based on college and department stipulations.

Application Process:

  • Only juniors and seniors may register for classes at the JATC.
  • Fill out an application online (see bottom of this page) and participate in JATC entrance testing.  An application should be completed online before a student participates in entrance testing.
  • If you have reasonable accommodations that are included in a 504 plan or an IEP, please have your CTE Coordinator, High School Counselor, or your Special Programs Coordinator attach the information to your application.  Your 504 or IEP will not be factored in to JATC admissions decisions. Rather, this is invaluable information for instructors to review before the school year begins in order to have accommodations in place that will meet your educational needs.
  • Each of the JATC programs requires entrance testing. Please obtain the testing schedule from your CTE Coordinator.   The testing schedule is also available online at http://jatc-wj.org/prospective-students .  In the testing schedule, you will notice that there is more than one testing date for each program. You will be required to attend one of the testing sessions for that program.  Important: Please plan to test in one of the early testing sessions.  Every year, we have students that plan to go to the last testing session and they have an unavoidable conflict and are unable to attend. Please be aware that there are no make-up testing dates.
  • The JATC staff will process your application, testing results, your transcript, and attendance and make a determination regarding acceptance. All students will be notified by mail regarding their status, in a timely manner, following the last date of testing.
