Anyone going to Modesto Junior College?

Published

I'm just curious! I'm just starting (at the ripe 'ol age of 35, LOL!) looking into a career in nursing. I've worked in hospitals and clinics doing medical transcription for years and years, and way back when used to be a pre-physical therapy major (I've taken chemistry, anatomy, biology...don't know if they would count, as it's been several years). I would be attending MJC for pre-reqs and (fiingers crossed) the nursing program eventually and I would really love to have a student's view, how difficult it is to get into the program, any general advice, etc.

Yay! Thanks for the update!

Hello hopeful future RN's, I too have been trying to get into MJC's ADN program. This was my fourth time applying. I just got my letter in the mail, and they said that I did not get in for Fall or Spring! ARGH!! Did anyone else get their letter yet?
