Bellevue College Nursing Winter Cohort 2017

Published

Hey Everyone!

I just wanted to start a Bellevue College Nursing page for the Winter 2017 cohort! If you got into this cohort or are still in the application process tell us who you are! It would be nice to get to know other students in the program and pass along information to help each other out.

A little about me...

I just received a letter that I was accepted into the winter 2017 cohort yesterday! :) I am new to BC, so navigating the campus and the application process is new for me. I'm originally from Michigan, where I completed most of the prerequisite courses while obtaining my B.S. degree (I was originally pre-med, planning the MD route...). My other prerequisites were completed after I moved here through Lake Washington Institute of Tech. I am currently working in the ER at Swedish hospital which has been an amazing opportunity to learn a ton about medicine. I am 29 and male. That's about all for now! Hope to work with some of you soon!

Thank you Mitra! I just received the same email. Sounds like we will get our calendar and clinical assignments for winter! :)

As for affordable places to live... I have not found any. My wife and I currently live in Issaquah about 10 minutes from the campus, but this comes at a pretty high cost. We chose Issaquah because I work at the hospital up in the highlands and she teaches at a local elementary school nearby, so it made sense for us. I wish you the best!

I'm finding these posts a little late, but I was also accepted to the Winter Cohort! I graduated from WSU with a biology/ psychology degree and am currently working as a CNA at Seattle Children's Hospital.

Does anyone have any idea what our first quarter schedule might look like? Excited to meet everyone!

Mina28, I have the same question! Does anyone here know what our potential class schedule will look like on a weekly basis for the first quarter in January 2017? My job is pushing pretty hard right now to let them know what days of the week I will be available... Any information, even if its just general info, would be helpful! Thank you!

Hello everyone!

class schedule for the fall cohort is all over the place, every week and every day is different we do not have a set schedule, right now we have most Wednesdays off. Plan on being on campus from 830 to 1600 most days.

Clinical rotation are 2days a week starting the 5th week of the quarter and those start between 5:45-700 depending on instructor and usually are 6hr shifts.

I hope you guys will get a more set schedule than us, it can get pretty overwhelming to try to schedule life when every week is different!

good luck to all of you and congratulations!
