Alright, I'll start! MDC Fall 2013

Published

Why hello there, fellow students!

You can call me Cedeno, and I'll be applying for the MDC nursing program for fall 2013! I've been excited for awhile now, especially since MDC (and all its red tape) has delayed my intended apply date twice (originally Fall 2012, then Spring 2013). Ah, but no worries!

Right now I'm taking my last bit of classes before applying: A&P 2 w/lab, Micro, and Critical Thinking/Ethics. I've seen many nursing students this semester-- which is wonderful-- but at the same time I think two words when I meet another pre-nursing student: "Awesome! :x3: " and "Competition! :wideyed: " (Not seriously, but in a jokey kind of way.)

Once admitted, I'd love to form a study group. Size isn't quite so much the priority as cohesiveness is (though size counts!). I'd love study mates who like to utilize chats like Google talk, Skype, Kik, etc. for times when perhaps we'd like to study something but cannot make it to a physical location.

I'm a visual and auditory learner, so I love highlighters, dry-erase boards, and discussing questions together to ensure everyone understands rather than one person offering up the answer and others just accepting it without knowing.

Ah! I've managed to turn this into an ad for study mates! :o I'm just excited and hope there are other potential classmates here on AN. Please pop in and say hello! Let's talk GPAs, TEAS scores, whatever!

....Also if you take the TEAS twice is it highest score used or last test taken?

GOOD LUCK! :cat:

Stats:

Expected final science GPA: 3.67

TEAS score: n/a

Has anyone registered for the CPR course?

Still waiting....

Now, if you DON'T get accepted, do you get notice of that as well? Or are you just left hanging?

at jessy926 I believe they should tell you either way so you can look for somewhere else that wouldn't be fair to make you wait if they are not planning on accepting you into the program

Good morning! Me too Tati! I have been anxious because I haven't had a single email in weeks in my school account. It would be my luck that my email doesn't work and I miss my letter![/quote']

You should do what I did... Send a "test" email to your MDC email account and make sure it works. I've done it a couple of times just to make sure. ;)

@jakagi I was JUST gonna say that! Lol Brandi I have sent myself test emails to verify and now my inbox says "test" everytime I log in... I'm officially losing it.

It has to be this week. Orientation is less than a month away. I have a friend that went to UM nursing and she said she called their admission office constantly. I am tempted to call to get some new info, but I don't think whoever picks up the phone will really know what's going on. Anyone have any luck when calling advisement and getting the information you needed?

Ugghhh I told myself I wasn't going to call because I didn't want to get anxious, AND I CALLED! That was the stupidest thing I could of done. I called the nursing school and they sent me over to advisement and they said we won't find out until end of June Or beginning of July. She then specified that was when they would be sending rejection letters. So if you didnt get a rejection to just keep patiently waiting. Great......

they will be sending the rejection letters first??

No no no, they will be sending acceptance letters from now until July, so she said to keep waiting. As long as you don't get a rejection letter, then to keep waiting.

oh I see thanks for the info!!

Oh my god this is so stressful...

How would that make any sense when orientation is scheduled for early July?? They're killing us here!!

@tati...thanks for the info!!
