1. WCCCD, Applying for fall 2010

   ShannonW replied to nurs101's topic in Michigan Nursing

   I'm sorry that my reply offended you, but my message was in no way angry. I simply asked you to elaborate a bit. Honestly, what sort of reaction did you expect? You entered into a thread of messages...

2. WCCCD, Applying for fall 2010

   ShannonW replied to nurs101's topic in Michigan Nursing

   How exactly did the school or its program traumatize you? No offense, but unless one of the professors assaulted you or something, I fail to see how any traumatization serious enough to warrant...

3. WCCCD Spring 2010 starting soon

   ShannonW replied to Cayles1102's topic in Michigan Nursing

   I'd be happy to! Unfortunately, I can't do so in this thread (against forum rules), but if you look in my profile under "Contact Info," you can send an email to my MSN email and I'll reply with some...

4. WCCCD Spring 2010 starting soon

   ShannonW replied to Cayles1102's topic in Michigan Nursing

   Yep, that's the "hidden" pre-req. You do have to take it because you can't register for/take Bio 240 without first taking 155. If you look in the catalog (not the schedule book), you'll see Bio 155 as...

5. WCCCD Spring 2010 starting soon

   ShannonW replied to Cayles1102's topic in Michigan Nursing

   Before you can apply for the program, you have to take Intro Bio (Bio 155), Anatomy & Physiology I (Bio 240), Anat/Phys II (Bio 250), Microbiology (Bio 295), English I (Eng 119), and Intro...

6. WCCCD

   ShannonW replied to MsAshley's topic in Michigan Nursing

   Hi! I'm not applying to start (been there, done that), but I might be able to help anyway. WCCCD uses a point-based system that, if I recall correctly, breaks down as follows: max 60 pts for GPA, max...

   ShannonW replied to mmh2's topic in Michigan Nursing

   Unfortunately, nope: you can't apply until all of your co-reqs are finished. When you apply, there's a section where you write in your grades for each pre-req, so if you tried to apply in Feb, you...

   ShannonW replied to mmh2's topic in Michigan Nursing

   If you finish Micro this Fall semester, and that's the end of your pre-reqs, and you've done the TEAS and have all of your documents together and apply before Feb 28th, 2011, you may be able to start...

   ShannonW replied to mmh2's topic in Michigan Nursing

   The deadline for starting in a Fall semester is the last day of February (28th or 29th) of the same year; the deadline for starting in a Spring semester is June 30th of the previous year. Nope. The...

    ShannonW replied to mmh2's topic in Michigan Nursing

    If you want to avoid wait-lists, focus your attention on schools without them, like WCCCD. Have you taken the appropriate tests for the school you want to attend? For example, for WCCCD, you have to...

11. do I have a chances

    ShannonW replied to AM FRANCES's topic in Michigan Nursing

    The points system of which you've heard breaks down as follows: max 60 pts for your GPA (ex: 60pts for a 4.0 GPA), max 20 pts for your TEAS score, max 10 pts for having taken all courses at WCCCD, max...

12. Instructor was a no show

    ShannonW replied to jenp313's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hate when that happens! I've heard they couldn't get ahold of jenp313's instructor, which isn't good (correct me if I'm wrong?). In our (Western) case, though, the instructor wasn't to blame, at least...

13. Instructor was a no show

    ShannonW replied to jenp313's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I take it you're talking about NUR 110 (Theory/Foundations) at WCCCD Western? Or maybe a nursing class at NW? (Similar things happened at WE and NW.) If not: crazy coincidence! If you *are* talking...

14. WCCCD Spring 2010 starting soon

    ShannonW replied to Cayles1102's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Quick question for those in pods 11 and 12: are you wearing your sweats "uniform?" I know 9 and 10 have skills lab Tuesday, but I'm not sure if we (11 and 12) do. Then again, I'm the paranoid type:...

15. WCCCD Spring 2010 starting soon

    ShannonW replied to Cayles1102's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Oof. Mine are still a little out of whack. I'm in pod 12, so I have 110 T/R 3-5pm, 111 R/F 8am-2pm, and 118 Sa 8am-12pm. In webgate, the times for 111 and 118 are fine, but 110 is still M/R 3-5pm. All...
