Washtenaw Community College maintains a waitlist for admission into any program that it has designated as a high demand program (one for which there are more qualified applicants than openings for an entering class). The order of the waitlist facilitates a first-in, first-out treatment of applicants within the following residency classes:*
Priority 1: Legal residents of the Washtenaw Community College district.

Priority 2: Legal residents of counties adjacent to the Washtenaw Community College district.

Priority 3: Legal residents of all other counties of the State of Michigan.

Priority 4: Persons whose legal residence is outside the State of Michigan but within the United States.

Priority 5: Persons whose official residence is a foreign country.

In order to be added to the waitlist, applicants must apply to the College and also submit a completed application for the program. The program application must include any necessary documentation to substantiate that the applicant has met all of the program’s minimum admission requirements. The College will keep a rolling waitlist for each high demand program and applicants will be added to the list at the end of each two-month period listed below:
August 1 to September 30
October 1 to November 30
December 1 to January 31
February 1 to March 31
April 1 to May 31
June 1 to July 31
August 1 to September 30

Those who applied during one of the application periods defined above will be added to the waitlist in random order, with applicants possessing Washtenaw County residency status being given first priority on the waitlist, applicants with residency status in counties adjacent to Washtenaw County will be given next priority, then all other applicants who meet Michigan residency requirements, and so on.*

Applicants who submit their completed applications on the first day of the two-month application period have no advantage over those who submit their completed applications on the last working day of the two-month application period. These applicants are added to the waitlist in random order, within their residency class.

However, those who submit their completed application in an earlier application time period have priority over those in their residency class who submit during a later time period. For example, people who submit completed applications in the October 1 to November 30 period have priority in their residency class over people who submit their applications during the December 1 to January 31 time period.

The Admissions Office is open during weekdays, so please note that if the last day of the month ends on a day the Office is closed, you must submit your documentation earlier if you wish to submit it in person. Also, if you are on the waitlist and your residency status changes, you will be placed in the part of the waitlist that applies to your most current residency status, so please make sure that Student Connection has your latest address.

If you have any questions, please contact:
  • Health Admissions Office: (734)973-3596
  • Health Counselor: Sue Travis (734)973-3666
  • Radiography Program Director: Connie Foster (734)973-3418

*In cases where there are not sufficient in-district clinical sites for a program and where out-district sites are available but require special consideration of out-district students, the College may establish and maintain parallel priority lists.
