This is a posting for all who are applying to Oakland Community College Nursing Program for the fall of 2014 (program start date).
Ask questions and post information...
So... Here is the first question. Correct me if I am wrong, the HESI exam has to be done be December 15, 2013, this is the deadline to apply. If someone know for certain, please post.
I am waiting for my transcript from WSU to be evaluated by OCC so I can make an appointment with a career counselor to obtain an official checklist.
Sorry for the extended delay in getting back to anyone.
I just received a letter from the Nursing Department at Oakland Community College Highland Lakes. The letter arrived to me on 03/17/2014 and was composed on 03/14/2014.
Now the difficult part I am faced with, do I decide Oakland Community College ADN or Wayne State University MSW. Do I want to do nursing or social work? I truly do not know.
HESI Scores
English: 96%
Math: 94%
Course GPA Used in Scoring (in order): 3.0, 4.0, 3.7, 2.7, 4.0
That can be a hard decision. I was faced with a similar choice - to either go with the ADN or BSN in nursing. I decided to go with the ADN. The cost saving was significant for me, and that tipped the balance. There is no guarantee of getting a job with either degree, and with OCC I can be done in 2 years with 0 debt.
I am looking forward to getting my Pharmacology class assignment, how about all of you?
It was new for this year and very minimal. Only the math and english sections. In my estimation it weeded out those who could not pass 9th grade math and english - it was a non factor, except for $60 out of my pocket.
