Macomb Community College Nursing 2013

Alright so I have uncovered information from someone I knew that was in the program last year. She got her start date letter in the mail June 22. It told her she was an August start and the possible classes that you would be in(the same list that is online in the schedule) Then about a week later she got her exact classes to register for. All class times were chosen for her and she just registered for them on her registration day, which for us this year is July 11th or something.

She also said that January/March starts WOULD NOT be getting a second letter until November/December.

I JUST WANT MY LETTER!

Ok, so I just called and spoke to someone who said that the person who sends the letters is off and will return tomorrow, and that our letters have NOT gone out yet, but will hopefully be put in the mail sometime this week.

Ugh. I hate how they give us the run around. I remember they said our acceptance letters hasn't gone out yet, and then we got them that same day! It's such an emotional ride. I wish I could just believe them. .

I hear ya, Baylie. It's so funny because we wait and wait and wait, then all of a sudden it'll be 'hurry up and get a million things done before class starts'.

Right!!! I understand it must take a lot of time for them to get everything done. They have multiple selective admissions to schedule, but I need to plan my life here lol. I don't work well unless I have everything planned out. I was right on the cusp of October and I am worried that it will say August and I will be in a mad dash to complete everything/get a loan/breathe.

Well if anyone gets their letter today or tomorrow, please post it on here so I know! My mail from macomb goes to my parents.

If anyone gets their letters,please post on here!

Other than ranking, what determines our start date?

May 25, 2013 I sent the following email:

"For our medical records and physical are we waiting to receive a form from the school or do we use our own medical facility form? Also, do I send you a copy of my healthcare insurance? Is there anything else that I should being doing now?

On May 29, 2013 I received the following reply:

"I will send out information – including the physical form – closer to the start dates, which have not been decided yet"

Based on my ranking, I expect to start in August; however, the reply that I received suggests that ranking is not the only factor. Not sure what to think, but I feel good about trying to cover my bases.

People with a higher rank can start later If they choose, therefore bumping everyone up. People with a lower ranking cannot choose to start earlier.

So if you were ranked above 40 you are August for sure, unless your prerequisites are not done. They have to say that to you because If they say yes you are an August since you ranked -- whatever. Then everyone would want them to tell them their start date. That the answer my counselor gave me when I went up there after orientation.

Sorry to post again lol I keep remembering things. Also in previous years there has been times when they could except more or less per start date. One year there were 35 Augusts and 45 Octobers due to an unexpected change in staffing.
