Microbiology Online Spring 2009

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

Ocean County College, Toms River, NJ, has just added a totally online microbiology course including the laboratory. I have signed up for the course that begins in January 2009. I live in Ocean County so I get the in county rate which is dirt cheap $92 per credit. A "Hands-On" lab (LabPaq) is actually shipped to your house for an extra $240 and a microscope for $163. I took their A&P II online so I already had the microscope.

I work full time so this is going to be great for this single Mom. The instructor who teaches the course says that he has students from all over the US signing up for the course. He will be offering this course every semester including summers. I took him before for Contemporary Health online so I know he is one of the best professors that I have ever had. He has won awards for his online courses.

My recommendation, If you need a way to take microbiology totally online, it has just arrived! You will not be sorry.

Thanks

For people that have taken the OCC Microbiology class online: How is it structured? Can you work at your own pace (are there specified days/times to take tests or can you work ahead)? There is a 5 week summer class and I am wondering how intensive it will be as I am already taking 3 other classes during the same time. Ok thanks so much.

Professor Spencer who I am taking ap1 with says that you do the cat dissection at home. how does that work?? i love online classes so that part i am not really concerned about. any input would be appreciated.

Is this school accredited? To transfer classes my school looks for regional accreditation.

Try Rio Salado Community College. They are strict about their prerequisites, but the cost is not too bad. http://www.riosalado.edu/schedule/Pages/default.aspx
