- Applicant must have a diploma from one of Francis Tuttle Technology Center's partner schools or live within the Francis Tuttle Technology Center school district and have successfully completed a home school or private school program
- Applicant must apply and be accepted into a long-term programwithin fifteen (15) months after high school graduation
- Many program openings are filled on a "competitive basis." Students must qualify for program openings under the same standards and criteria as all other students.
