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!

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!

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...

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. :)

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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.

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...

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...

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

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 ...

FYI, the NAU patch is NOT a requirement. Optional if you choose. :)

Wow, they are really torturing you guys with the wait!! I'm block 3 at MCC/NAU CEP and it only took 10 days for us to get notified that we got in! I hope they let you know soon. Hang in there! You guys will be nurses before you know it!! :)

With the new curriculum and changes they made that started with every block that began August 2015 and later, every block is now 9 credits each, which is considered 3/4 time, not full-time. Tuition is currently $84 per credit hour but usually goes up...

Hi there! I'm in block 3 at MCC. Our instructors told us from Block 1 that we could take the CNA test once we successfully passed Block 1. I did not take the test and don't know anyone in my block that did. I would contact someone with CNA licensing ...

If you're in med-surg, this is totally normal. I rocked Block 1 and Block 2 (med-surg) hit me like a semi truck. It's completely different than fundamentals in Block 1 and EVERYONE struggled with it. I started off Block 2 really rocky and it took me ...

It changes sometimes. I am in Block 3 at MCC. When I was in Block 1 it was Mon-Thurs. Mon & Tues was lecture from 0900-1130, Weds & Thurs 0700-1500 were lab the first 8 weeks and clinical/simulation the second 8 weeks. The current Block 1 sch...

I went with Mesa, despite living across the street from Chandler Gilbert (which I've heard a lot of bad things about) because Mesa consistently has one of the highest NCLEX pass rates. I am in Block 3 at Mesa and love it. :)

Math class = very helpful. Nursing review class = not helpful AT ALL. It was a huge disappointment. So much that the interest in doing one for Block 2 was so low that they didn't even do one for Block 2. I start Block 3 next month and am taking the r...

We got a separate student ID that says student nurse on it at MCC. They ARE different than the generic ID.

Wow, that's a lot of books. I'm at MCC and start Block 3 next month. For Block 1 and 2 the only required books we had were the Fundamentals 1 & 2 and Ignatavicius (Iggy”) Med-Surg book. We were required to purchase ATI as well as Skyscape. Skys...
