Thats a long time. I ordered mines on the 20th of June and it came back the 24th. Did you go through Certified Background?

Yes! The same people I used in January. I have not ever been in any trouble!!! Don't know what I should do....

When I talked to the lady at certified background, she said it isn't unusual. Cook county is always backed up in her experience. It doesn't sound right to me.

Rem1997,

Call your school and let them know and see what they say. I hope this doesnt stop you, especially when this is out of your hands.

Thanks for the advice! Our registration was yesterday. The coordinator told me not to worry about it because I had just had one done. She actually told me to cancel it. But there were a couple other people there who were waiting on the county clerk to process theirs also. Registration took a little while but it was painless... :nurse:

There were really only two choices day or evening. I noticed that the other colleges have way more options. I would just say get there early!

The "day" class is Mon and Tues from 10a to 11:50a and the "evening" class is Mon and Tues from 5p to 6:50p here on campus.

"day" class has 2 clinical options - either Thurs or Friday from 7a to 12:50p (you only pick one of the clinical days not both)

The "evening" class also has 2 clinical options - one is Thurs from 7a to 12:50p, the other is Thurs from 3p to 9p (again, you only pick one of those options not both

The director actually signed us up and put it into the computer and then we had to go to the business office to pay/confirm.

There were only about 6 other people there when I went. What took the longest is for them to go through your medical papers.

Also I don't know if this would apply at your school but since I chose "day" that is the track I have to keep for the whole program.

We do have and morning and evening cohort, which is assigned to us by our preference, if available. For scheduling we have been assigned times to come in and register and we get to pick our classes according to our assigned cohort.

Where does it say they needed to be white? :nailbiting: I'd like to not have to buy a new pair ): Does anyone know what books to get yet? Thanks!
