I contacted DMACC in January 2014 to enroll evenings. I was notified a seat was available for me May 2014 for an August 2014 start. So...NO WAIT for the evening program. It's currently full as it is July/nearly August. DMACC had a one semester lag for Boone, Ankeny, Newton, Carroll when I was seating for Urban evenings. I think they start Spring and Fall. So...you can apply now and start any of those campuses the next semester as long as you have completed the requirements for admission. I took CNA at Mercy as the 150 hours can be completed in one semester versus 2 at DMACC. Same price as DMACC but quick.
