Texas County Technical College (TCTC) is a nursing-focused technical college located in Houston, Missouri, USA. The site states that it “offers only healthcare education programs,” with its core programs being a 1-year Practical Nursing (LPN) program and a 1-year Accelerated LPN to RN program. The school is positioned more as a local career-education institution, emphasizing a small-school environment, small class sizes, and that students are not treated as “just a number.”
The program offerings are highly focused, mainly centered on nursing licensure pathways. Applicants to the LPN program must take the TEAS exam. The Accelerated LPN to RN program is designed for applicants who already hold an LPN license and are IV Certified, and it requires completion of 17 prerequisite credits before the program begins, including anatomy and physiology, English composition, psychology, and nutrition. The school discloses a lab student-to-instructor ratio of 1:6, with about 33 seats per year for the LPN program and about 27 seats for the LPN to RN program. Nursing cohorts start only once per year. TCTC is institutionally accredited by ABHES and provides NCLEX preparation support throughout its programs. In 2024, the LPN to RN program’s NCLEX-RN pass rate was 89.47%, while the LPN program’s NCLEX-PN pass rate was 79.31%.
The site does not provide full tuition details, stating only that students should complete the FAFSA and contact the Financial Aid office to learn about program costs and potential aid. The TEAS exam costs $70 per attempt, with a maximum of two attempts. The school does not accept the A+ Scholarship, but it does accept other scholarships, grants, and loans. Admissions are handled on a “first-come, first-qualified, first-served” basis, with applicants placed on a waitlist once seats are full.
The advantages are its focused nursing orientation, small classes, and strong tutoring resources, including one-on-one and group tutoring. Local healthcare organizations also visit the campus to introduce job opportunities. The school notifies students and alumni about job fairs and openings as well. The drawbacks are that program options are very limited, core nursing courses do not accept transfer credits, missing a start date means waiting until the following year, employment support is assistance-only with no guaranteed placement, and information on tuition, detailed schedules, and online learning is insufficient.
It is better suited for students planning to study nursing in person in Missouri, prepare for the NCLEX, and enter the local healthcare job market, especially adult learners who need high-touch support. For Chinese students, the site does not provide information on international admissions, visas, remote courses, or access stability from China, so its access status can only be marked as unknown.
