Hello All,

This is my first post and it is about the LPN to RN program at MCC. I would love to hear from past/current students about the waiting process, and the program itself. I applied in January and is currently awaiting the acceptance or worse; the rejection letter:( Positive thoughts!!

I am also here to answer any questions to those who are considering the this program.

Thank you:)

Hi,

I applied in January as well for LPN to RN at MCC. Any idea when we will hear anything? Did you apply for days or nights.

I applied for the day program. When I went to the info session they did say that letters are sent out late April or early May. Don't know about you but this waiting game is really stressful.

This wait for letters is killing me. Lets hope we hear in april and not may... :wideyed: I applied for evening because last year I applied for days and didn't get. I know its harder to get into days they take less than 10 people. Good luck update if you hear anything.

Hi! I have also applied to the massasoit program- but the day one. I have a 3.55 major GPA, and I got B's in AP 1 and 2, and an A in micro. All other classes are completed with As and A-. I got an 88 on the reading TEAS. Im really hoping I get in but I am really doubting myself. The wait is killing me. Im also waiting to hear from brockton hospital, and I got into laboure, but thats my last choice!

I have a 4.0 GPA but I only got 69 on the TEAS (1 point out of a possible 4). That is my second time doing it and I have never been able to get pass 36 questions. I am a really slow reader so needless to say that is a stress factor. I'm told that a lot of students have 4.0GPA's, so right now I am banking on my essay to give me the maximum 12 points.

I too have been accepted at Laboure but like you it is my last choice, and I may not even go and just try again next year for Massasoit.

Good Luck

A 4.0 is wonderful. I was also thinking taking the year and applying to all the community colleges I can. I am in chem right now, which is killing me and a lot of schools require you take that before applying. I want to apply to quincy too so I may skip out on laboure. Who has told you many student have 4.0s? Im also hoping for a 12 on my essay! Im hoping my TEAS helps too, I got 3 of the 4 points for that. If I added my points and I remember correctly I had like 53 or something.

Good luck to you too!

I was talking to someone from admissions about my "slow reading skills" and they suggested that I try to get a letter from my doctor stating that; that way "special" accommodations would be made for me to get more time. (Basically they were saying I would have to have a diagnosis of some form of disability). It was then that it was suggested to me that it would be best to get the diagnosis because a lot of students have 4.0GPA's. Right now I have 47 points but if I get 12 for the letter I'm thinking I should be okay, but who knows, I may end up messing that up too:(( Oh the stress of waiting is killing me.

My plan is to take chemistry this Fall as well for the same reason. In doing so I hope to apply to BCC or Quincy.

Good Luck and I hope we see each other in class this fall:)

I just got off the phone with admissions and was told that letters will not be sent out until the middle of May!! Somebody kill me now. Here I thought I was close to finding out, only to be told I have to wait another month! AHHHHHH
