Wolford College


I was just recently accepted to wolford college. My start date is feb 2010.. I read several threads and I found negative and positive things people said about wolford college. But I wanted to hear from current students or newley graduated students about the program. Anyone else starting in Feb 2010? Any information helps. I live 2 hours away of naples so makes things a bit easier probably..

Thanks

I am planning on starting in Feb 2010. A few people I use to work with are there right now and they say its hard but are enjoying it and only have good things to say about it. They feel their teachers are really there to help. No one I have contact with are currenlty doing clinicals but I did call Wolford to ask some questions concerning clinicals. I was told that you can be with an older student to help you through your first part of clinicals, they call this an orientation. So as an older student you may need to orient as well.

I am from Utah. There are 4 or 5 people that I work with that start in Feb 2010 as well. It will be nice to have people I know in class. 2 other people I work with start in Sept and one is currently in the program. CRNA school is the popular thing to do where I work; is that how it is everywhere else? Most the new ICU nurses get a year or two of ICU experience and then move on to CRNA school.

Hey when did you interview? I met a few people from Utah during my interview. WellI would like maybe hear more about the experiences of the students you know who are in the school already. Yes its about the same thing hear. Most people I see are trying to go to crna school. Well the market is still okay for crna's but it is getting saturated in some parts. Schools are pumping students out left and right. So the sooner I get going the better it is. lol

Hi I attend Wolford, started clinicals full time in Sept( 4th sem).... The program is awesome, I love it and am glad I chose this program. The Instructors are good and want you to learn. There were times when I had questions days after a lecture, after going over it at home and trying to study on my own, and I just went up to the school and spoke with the instructor...He went over it again and made sure I understood what was being taught. It is time consuming and of course you are going to have to apply yourself but its worth it...Good luck
