Anyone been thorugh the TJC ADN program?

by RaElrA

I have an identical question to "imanubee", but about TJC's ADN program. Are there any of you out there who have recently been through the first semester here, and can tell me what to expect in way of days/hours? Like "imanubee," I also need to adjust my work schedule, and we don't get the "official" info until orientation--at the beginning of the semester. Thanks for any and all information!

Howdy! I'll be finishing up the ADN program at TJC this fall. You can expect to be in school from 8AM to 4 PM monday thru friday. The first semester seems very disorganized. I found it to be the toughest. It's worth it, though. Good luck!

There is at least one other person on this forum who is beginning the TJC program in the fall. She will probably post something soon.

Feel free to PM me if you need any more information.

Thanks, C-Tex! I see you are another "mature" student, lol. I will PM you later (after I find out how--I haven't done that yet).

Hi RaElra,

I am the other student who will start in August!! Congrats on your acceptance! I am scared to death, but totally excited to be one of the "chosen few!!" Cametoitlate has been a major help to me, and also PMed me to let me know that you were on here! There have been a couple of other posters on here who have been a big help to me, so hopefully, I can pass on info.

I too am an older student (but like Cametoit, I don't know about mature!!) who decided finally, what I wanted to be when I grew up!!!

Have you gotten the lastest packet that the ADN office sent out about 3 weeks ago? They had mentioned a tentative schedule. Of course they didn't list the actual days for the classes/labs or clinicals, but basically, it will go from 8:00-5:00 with clinicals being 5:30-5:30. I will email my friend who started in the spring to see what her schedule is like, and get back to you as soon as she emails me back.

Give me a PM anytime you have any questions and if I can't answer them, I'm sure that Cametoitlate or somebody else can!!! BTW, to PM someone, click on their name, right there on the left, and it will come up with some option. Just scroll down to "send a private message" and click on that link and follow the directions from there!!!
