Orlando Tech

No, not yet. I called maybe a couple of weeks ago and they said they send the letter out in October and orientation is for November. So no I haven't gotten my letter yet. Hopefully soon though.

Thank you for your response.

Almosttheremhm are you going into the LPN part time program?

almostthereMHM · Oct 21, 2008

Yes, I will be going part-time. Full time program would be nice so it could be done in a year. But the part-time program is more convient. How do you like the school from what you've experienced so far?

Allterrainnurse · Oct 21, 2008

For me is more convenient, too.

When I went to Orlando Tech for the first time, I was a little surprised because the campus looks like a high school. Then I went to the mini orientation, passed the net, and registered. The registration process was simple. I don't know what to expect from the program in general. I only know what I've read in this forum. People have different opinions.

And what about you? What do you think about Orlando Tech in general?

Thank You!

Yeah, same here. It does look like like a high school. I was kind of hesitant in the beginning. The staff was ok nothing to write home about. Everytime I talked to the receptionist of the lpn program she acted like I was bothering her. But in the end I weighed all of my options and did my research on every LPN program in the area and as far as price and convience it was the best option. You turned your paperwork in back in April. Didn't they have a September program starting or was that only for full time?

Allterrainnurse · Oct 21, 2008

The part time program only starts in January.

Codeda · Oct 21, 2008

Does it always only start in January or does it depend on the year? When i called to find out when they were offering the part-time program they said the next one starts up in january but it has different start dates all year. That would really suck if it is January only for part time. I would def have to go for the full time one then.

Allterrainnurse · Oct 21, 2008

Well, I tried to apply before (January 2008), and they told me that I had to wait until January 2009 because classes were full.

But you know what, I went to their website, and it says that the start dates varies.

If I were you, I would call to get specific information.

Codeda · Oct 21, 2008

Yeah that's pretty much what they told me when i called " Our next one is in january and the rest are various times through the year". That's as specific as it got. Well i suppose if i can't do january i will call them back in feb or march to see if they know when the next one will be:wink2:

Allterrainnurse · Oct 22, 2008

I noticed that they dont give too much information. You have to ask very specifically. I hope that in the orientation they inform us about everything.

Hi GigiNorma,

Did you recieve your orientation letter yet?

Allterrainnurse · Nov 14, 2008

I haven't received the letter yet.

Two days ago, I called them, and they said that I should receive the letter before November 20th.
