1. How quickly did AZBN post your license after NCLEX?

   AZMama86 replied to kadeedid's topic in Arizona

   As quick as 15-16 hours. My friend took hers on a Monday at 1pm and results were posted when she looked at 7am the next day. I took mine yesterday later morning and the results were posted when I checked early this morning!

2. How long will the wait be for MCC with only ONE choice?

   AZMama86 replied to studentinAZ's topic in Arizona

   MCC has no wait at all currently. I'm in Block 4 at MCC and that's what the admin has told us. :) Good luck!

3. Anybody NOT accepted to NAU/ASU/CEP through MCCD?

   AZMama86 replied to KendallAZ's topic in Arizona

   I just started Block 4 of the MCC/NAU program and I graduate in December. It's a great program and I highly recommend it to everyone I talk to that's interested in it. Many of our teachers, nurses, nurse managers, and more have told us that they pref...

   AZMama86 replied to AZnurse2b18's topic in Arizona

   If you apply in January 2017, you would start the university courses Summer 2017 and Block 1 Fall 2017. If you applied May 2017, you would start the university courses Fall 2017 and Block 1 Spring 2018. :)

5. 2016 CEP Information Sessions

   AZMama86 replied to aavargas13's topic in Arizona

   Sorry I just now saw this! My HESI was 96% Math and 91% English. I honestly don't remember my GPA but believe it was around 3.5. But I would not rely on that because I was accepted over 2 years ago and I graduate this fall. When I applied, it was "co...

6. Failed Block 2

   AZMama86 replied to StephSparks's topic in Arizona

   I'm so sorry - I just now saw this! I'm so glad you were accepted! That's wonderful news! If you are AM, the instructor is amazing! I love her and could not have passed Block 2 without her! They don't offer the blocks during the summer at MCC (althou...

7. 2016 CEP Information Sessions

   AZMama86 replied to aavargas13's topic in Arizona

   I applied for the CEP program on 5/20/14 I believe with an MCC start of Spring 2015. I received my acceptance letter via email on 5/29/14. I began NAU classes August 2014 and they ended October 2014. I started Block 1 along with other NAU classes Jan...

8. Failed Block 2

   AZMama86 replied to StephSparks's topic in Arizona

   Hey there. I just wanted to tell you I'm sorry and that you're not alone. I'm going into Block 4 this fall at MCC in the NAU/MCC CEP (old curriculum). We started with 62 students and have maintained that as they replace the spots each block with thos...

9. How hard is the CEP?

   AZMama86 replied to jen91's topic in Arizona

   I'm finishing up Block 3 of the MCC/NAU fast track CEP. Honestly, the NAU hasn't been the bulk of the work. Yes, it's extra work, but it's easy (for me anyways). The vast majority of it is weekly discussion posts and responses, papers, and group pape...

10. Computer for Nursing School?

    AZMama86 replied to hedyis's topic in Arizona

    I'm in block 3. Sometimes in block 1, people looked at the power points on their laptops in class but not many in block 2 did that. So far in block 3, I haven't seen anyone do it. The teachers lecture pretty fast so taking notes on a laptop isn't fea...

11. 2016 CEP Information Sessions

    AZMama86 replied to aavargas13's topic in Arizona

    The waitlist at MCC is 0 currently, so I would imagine Gateway is the same or no more than one semester for the regular RN program.

12. 2016 CEP Information Sessions

    AZMama86 replied to aavargas13's topic in Arizona

    They are no longer doing information sessions or application sessions for the CEP programs. They are not doing information sessions because the info is all online on the Maricopa Nursing website. For applying to the CEP program, you just have to be o...

13. How far would you drive?

    AZMama86 replied to alliesweetie14's topic in Arizona

    I'm in southeast Gilbert, pretty close to the CGCC nursing campus but I chose to go to MCC because of the reputation, experiences of my friends, and NCLEX pass rates. I've lucked out with clinicals and been in Gilbert/east Mesa for all of them. I'm i...

14. January CEP applicants?

    AZMama86 replied to rac1's topic in Arizona

    You have an amazing attitude! Seriously, don't lose that. It will greatly benefit you in nursing school!! :)

15. What is passing for your nursing program?

    AZMama86 replied to WanderingWilder's topic in General Students

    I'm in an ADN/BSN concurrent program. The ADN program at the community college I attend requires a 76% on proctored tests ONLY. None of the other assignments are even factored in until you reach the 76%. The BSN at the university I attend requires a ...
