Re: glendale community college nursing program

wait doesn't school start the 19th of january or does nursing start a different date than the rest of the school. my sheet says the math is on the 11th and 13th. I was hoping that was before regular school starts. I think I will do the math and the semester long class. They both seem really helpful.

Re: glendale community college nursing program

the weekend class begins the 8th. I beleive the traditional begins the same time as regular classes.

Re: glendale community college nursing program

congrads on getting accepted! I was wondering if you wouldnt mind telling me what books are needed for the program? I am trying to buy everything now, so I have it when I am accepted ( guessing in the next semester as my timestamp is 10/08 Thanks!

Re: glendale community college nursing program

unfortunatly it wouldnt help to know ahead of time, they switch the books w/new editions every run I think, so there is no guarantee that the books I will need will be the books you need. So i can post it if you want but I wouldn't reccomend buying yet until you are in because its a huge cost (even if used) and you dont know if they will use the same ones.

Re: glendale community college nursing program

Ok some additional info for any looking. The school registered me, the NUR104 class is a semester long, one hour on fridays after class. It is suppose to focus in on what to study from what was just taught. The schedule looks like this so far: Friday 7am to 11am lab, 11 to 12 break, noon to 3:30pm lecture, 3:35 to 4:45 NUR104 study class. Saturday 7am to 12:30 lab (this is thru february then it looks like saturday change because of clinicals) it will be friday the same and then saturday 6:30 to 1:45 off site at hospital. The tuition is $938 (thats for the math class and study class) there is also a $100 class fee (included in $938), so with books and tution its $1556. Then you need to budget in uniform, stethoscope, watch, school supplies. Hope this info helps anyone that was dying for details as I was!

Re: glendale community college nursing program

I'm in the 2nd block of the weekend program. I took the 104 class both semesters and I found it does help to cement the concepts that we were learning. More so in block 1 than block 2. I was glad I took it.

Re: glendale community college nursing program

I had a question about the Glendale weekend program. I understand the classes are on the weekends, right? Are the practicals all scheduled on weekends too?

Re: glendale community college nursing program

It is a Friday/Saturday program.

Re: glendale community college nursing program

What you don't know about the GCC weekend program going in is that in Block 2 (and possibly the other blocks) is you have to go to the hospital on Thursday afternoon/night to pick your patient and do your care plan. I'm luckier than most, I only work til 1300 on Thursdays....Its a time crunch for sure, I made sure my daughter is entertained on Thurs nite.

Re: glendale community college nursing program

I'm sorry if I'm dense, but you're saying all the classes and practicals are scheduled on Friday and Saturdays?
