I recently finished the WCC nursing program and the most important thing is that you have all the requirements met. You have to be finished with all the prerequisite courses before they accept you but you can apply while still taking them. I did just that and only had to wait one quarter between my A&P 2 class and starting the program. The letter of acceptance takes awhile to come but from my experience it wasn't so hard to get in. Good luck!
If you are done with prereqs in December, you might get in by March. That's what my experience was but it could be different now. Also I applied while I was still in my last prereq. A quarter is half a semester or an 8 week session. Each nursing class lasts 8 weeks. Make sure you have all other requirements done too like your entrance exam, doctor visits etc. Let me know if you have any other questions. :)
I finished my prereqs in December 2009, but had already applied for spring 2010 in the fall of 2009. The full semester wait period begins after you apply with all prereqs actually completed, which was my spring 2010 application. So, I did not get in for fall 2010, but did for spring 2011. In July 2010 when I received my rejection letter, the nursing secretary told me there were 120 people waiting just like I was. When did you finish your prereqs?

Just wondering if there is anyone out there with experience on applying to Waubonsee Community College for the ADN program? Is there a waiting list? Any information on what qualifications matter most? Thanks in advance!
