Most often asked question:  How long is the waitlist for the nursing program?
Your answer to that question:  Southwestern conducts a review each year for the nursing program.  Even though there may be a waitlist to get into the LPN or RN programs, it starts fresh each year.  Therefore, SWCC doesn’t have such a thing as a “three-year” waitlist.
