Progression, Retention, and Graduation

Progression

To progress, students in the Muskegon Community College Nursing Program must attain a minimum grade of C (2.0) in each 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

Students may apply for readmission providing they have not repeated a nursing course more than once. Readmission requirements must be met. When readmission requirements are met, the student will be readmitted according to the date of application for readmission and the availability of space in the Program. Failure to attain a passing grade in a repeated course will render students ineligible for readmission.

Graduation

To be eligible for graduation from the Nursing Program, students must meet all of the following requirements:
1.       Complete the nursing curriculum requirements for the diploma/degree desired with a minimum grade point of 2.0 (C) in each course.
2.       Complete not less than 30 or the last 15 credit hours required in the nursing curriculum at Muskegon Community College.
3.       File application for a graduation audit in the College Records Office no later than 90 days prior to the end of the term of anticipated graduation.
