Progression and Readmission

Progression

To progress, students in the Muskegon Community College Nursing Program must attain a minimum grade of C+ (2.3) in each Nursing course and a C (2.0) or better in each general education course in each term of the nursing curriculum. All courses must be completed in sequence (see Career Ladder). Students failing to meet this progression requirement will be dismissed.

Readmission

A student who withdraws or is dismissed from the Nursing Program may apply for readmission.  Readmission requirements must be met.  When the readmission requirements are met, the student will be readmitted according to the date of the application for readmission and the availability of space in the Program.

Three Course Repeats

{New policy effective December 2009.} A student who repeats any 3 different NUR or AH courses will be required to write a remediation plan that delineates a clear plan for future success and that is acceptable to the Nursing Faculty Admissions and Progressions Committee prior to readmission.  When an acceptable plan is received, the student will be readmitted according to the date of application for readmission and the availability of space in the Program.  A student with 3 or more different NUR or AH course repeats who is not successful during the implementation of a faculty approved probationary remediation plan will be ineligible for readmission.

Repetition of a Nursing Course

A student readmitted to the Nursing Program after withdrawal from or failure to achieve a minimum grade of a C+ (2.3) in a Nursing course may repeat the (same) course one time.  If a passing grade is not attained when the course is repeated, the student will be ineligible for readmission.
