MPTC Petition Process

Published

Hello Everyone,

I'm taking my pre-req classes for ADN at MPTC. I will be petitioning in Spring. I am wondering if anyone out there has been through the petitioning process at MPTC and if it took more than I time to get in. I know that they said they take up to 24, but they didn't say how many usually apply. I am a planner and hoping to have a better idea what to expect. Thanks!!

Heres the deal. Say there are 30 pre adn students the are petioning for a spot in program. Say that you are 24 on the list and there are only 15 spots available. Admin will go through each one in order not based on merit or all that other stuff they have been trying to say they are doing now. But when they come to say APPLICATION #4 and student Jane Doe doesent have micro completed yet, shes out and everyone moved up a spot. Also I have seen many times at MPTC that a student will get accepted and then not follow through with paperwork or plain had a change of heart. Out they go and up another spot you move. I work in a facilily in dodge county where most of our nurses are grads of MPTC. I have heard from many of them that at the start of their programs they were told from 12-24+ months before core classes and then all of a sudden they get a call if they can be available for next semester. It actually just happen yesterday that a CNA I work with, she thought she was gonna wait a year or more and hasnt even finished all her pre-reqs yet but they had a opening and offered it to her. Good Luck it will happen.
