Thank you for the posts! They made me reconsider the thought of going to Macomb. For one thing it is the extra cost with being out of district and then there is the fact that the drive is quite far and with gas prices and all.... It is so confusing with this nursing program thing! Sometimes I wonder if I really have it in me and the the next minute I know I can do it. WOW.. I haven't even made it in the program yet. Maybe that is the hardest thing. Can I even make it???? Would if I do and it is too hard??? Does anyone else feel this way or am I crazy????????????

Has anyone done any research regarding the nursing programs between these two colleges? I live in St. Clair County but I am pondering going to Macomb even though it will cost more money and will be a farther drive. I have done a year of prerequisites at SC4 but still have a few left. I will be done after this next year and will be applying for the RN program this fall. I hear that Macomb just goes by your last 12 credit hours GPA regardless of what classes they are from. I also heard that while in the nursing program at Macomb that you are allowed to pass a class with a C rather than a B at SC4. I also heard that at SC4 that if you do get below a B that you are out of the nursing program and have to reapply the following year while at Macomb if you get below a C you can just retake the class and not be out of the nursing program. I don't want to sound like my grades are not important to me, they are! I don't plan getting below a B but I am 41 and do not really have time to wait around in case for some reason I really struggle with a class. Does anyone have any input? I am so confused with what to do????:bugeyes:
