Madisonville Community College Fall 2013 Nursing Program

U.S.A. Kentucky

Published

Just wanted to see if anyone else will be attending the Fall 2013 class?

Seriously cannot wait to start the program! :) Hurry up August 19th!!

I would not be able to enroll at Madisonville Fall 2014. I saw that they changed the points. I'm happy I got in when I did. If I was you I would just go to Paducah, or whatever school accepts you. Good Luck! I don't see how they say the job market isn't there anymore.....???

@SarahStoddard14 I can’t send a PM yet, because I haven’t made 15 posts lol, but congratulations on being accepted!! Yes, I do live in Clarksville! My husband is stationed there as well. :) When I first started the program, I did not look forward to the drive there and back either, but honestly it’s really not that bad! We would always record our lectures, so what I would do is listen to them on my commute from Clarksville to Madisonville and vice versa (it definitely helped with understanding the material a bit better too!). So far, I LOVE the program! All the instructors are great and they really go out of their way to help their students in any way that they can. I’m not gonna lie, it’s going to be hard and there may be some days when you think to yourself, ‘what in the world did I get myself in to?!’, but it is SO worth it! I’m so excited to start second semester!! :D If you have any questions or need any advice at all, I will be happy to help!

Do you have orientation on January 8th too? :)

I was notified a little over a week ago that I was taken off the waitlist and I am accepted to the Spring 2014 class. They phoned me the day before the school closed. The admission/orientation packet was to be put in the mail that day but I still have not received the information. I will be going into the third semester. Can anyone tell me what needs to be done before classes start on January 13th? Background check information, drug testing, books, orientation day.....

Thank you

You need to be CPR certified. They give you the information you need and enough time to get it done. You need to have proof of immunizations. Also a drug test, background test, and maybe some other things I forgot.

I'm wanting to apply for the fall semester of 2015. I wanted to know were you placed on a waiting list or do they have a waiting list and if so do you know how long I would have to wait to start?

I can't remember. You just have to go to their nursing blog website. You have to go to a pre-conference and apply. Since you don't want to go til next year you wouldn't need to have all your stuff turned in til like May I think. I wasn't on a waiting list but they do have a waiting list for people just in case someone changes their mind.

Just wondering out of everyone who has been accepted into the nursing program the amount of points you got? I'm trying to see where I stand on getting accepted

I was wondering what your points were when applying? I have applied for Spring of 2015 and wondering if I had a chance of making it into the program

Hi Sarah, I am going to apply to MCC's program to start next fall 2015. I too live an hour away in the other direction, (Indiana) oddly enough, I have family in Clarksville:). I don't go to a preadmission conference for another two months,(November), but I've been trying to see what I should be studying for the HESI, what study guide did you use? What sections were on the test? I will need to do the hybird to keep working while I attend school, I know they say it's harder but I think I will do better without the added worry of being without a job or having to look for a job. Thanks in advance for the info.

I only made a75 on the Hesi. I had all pre reqs done... That gives you extra points I think. I didn't study for the Hesi but for the people in the program who did a lot got high 80's. I don't attend the program anymore.. I just moved to Nebraska. I'm attending a different nursing school.

The hybrid isn't much different than the traditional. In first semester there are a couple of lectures that ARE required. You also have to be there for every lab... And every check off. There is lab every week & check off is every 2 just about. You also have to be there for clinicals and that's about 2 a week.. Not to mention the tests. Those are about every two weeks for both classes (fundamentals and pharm). You're life will revolve around nursing school and most students didn't work... And the ones who did didn't make it through til the end. However, there were a few exceptions of course. One girl was a night surg tech on an OB floor and I know she's still thriving in the program. We started out with 50 and in the end we lost close to 15 I think. Good luck!!
