In completing the coordinated program of study for this articulation agreement, course substitutions should be made with
the guidance of the advisors (indicated below) at both institutions to assure that all requirements are satisfied. MMCC
courses indicated with an * are required for EMU’s Nursing Program.
Students whose transcripts are endorsed as “MACRAO Satisfied” will only be required to satisfy three of EMU’s general
education requirements, noted on the articulation guide and listed below. These may be completed at the most
convenient time for the student, whether before or after admission to EMU.
a) an approved course in Quantitative Reasoning: [at MMCC: MAT 124, 126, 212, 216, 217 ] or [At EMU: MATH
110; or if MATH 104 or its equivalent has been completed with a “C” or higher, MATH 105, 118, 120, 170, COSC
106; PHIL 181, PLSC 210, or STS 224]
b) an approved course in Global Awareness or US Diversity: [HUM 183, PHL 250, REL 111, ANT 170, POL 250,
SSC 111, SOC 220, or SOC 289] or [For EMU courses, see the approved Perspectives on a Diverse World list in the
catalog: http:// www.emich.edu/gened/students/approved.php]
c) an approved Learning Beyond the Classroom experience offered by EMU [any NURS clinical course]
To use MACRAO, students must request that an official community college transcript, with the “MACRAO Satisfied”
stamp, be sent to EMU’s Admissions Office. Students who don’t have “MACRAO Satisfied” on their community college
transcript will be required to satisfy EMU’s general education requirements as listed in the Undergraduate Catalog. The
MACRAO stamp may be completed after admission to EMU, however, students should inform advisors at EMU that they
intend to complete MACRAO, or they may be advised to complete additional courses for the general education program.
Only courses with a grade of “C” or better (2.0 on a 4.0 scale) will be accepted for transfer to EMU.
Under this agreement, EMU will waive the 60 hour rule and require that a minimum of 30 credit hours must be
completed at the four-year college level, with at least 30 credits hours in courses offered by EMU. A minimum of 124
credit hours, completed in-residence or accepted in transfer, is required for graduation.
Students should apply to both EMU and the School of Nursing RN/BSN Completion Option. The application for
admission to EMU may be accessed from the EMU Office of Admissions website. Students must submit transcripts
from all previously attended colleges. Students who speak English as a second language must submit a TOEFL or
MELAB score that meets EMU requirements.
The Application for Admission to the RN/BSN Option may be accessed from the School of Nursing website at
www.emich.edu/nursing/appForms.html Students must comply with the program requirements in effect at the time of
admission to the program. Current admission requirements include:
• An EMU student identification number,
• Application to the RN/BSN completion option, submitted by October 1st,
• Current unrestricted license to practice as a registered nurse,
• Minimum cumulative GPA of 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale),
• Minimum grade of 3.0 (on a 4.0 scale) in a college-level English Composition course,
• Designation on application of first and second choices for site preference for coursework.
•
Applicants must have completed EMU’s general education requirements or be MACRAO satisfied.
The RN/BSN Completion Option Coordinator will work with you to assist in exploration of degree requirements and
evaluation of your application for admission. Copies of the articulation guide are available on EMU’s webpage at
www.emich.edu/ccr/artguide.php.
Effective Dates: September 1, 2013 until August 31, 2016
If this agreement is not renewed at the end of the effective period, students who already began the program at MMCC will
have an additional three years to be admitted to EMU under the terms of the agreement.
