Yea. . . it's a community college about an hour from Portland, OR. Has a nursing program, but I believe that classes for that are on-site.

Chemeketa Community College is located in Salem, Oregon. It's a good school. Their nursing program has a long waiting list usually. Great pass NCLEX rate.

I'm considering taking their Microbiology online class. I just sent an e-mail to the instructor because it doesn't specifically say that it has a lab, but it is a 4 hour class. What do you think?

I took an online class through Chemeketa...it was Development through the Lifespan. No problems. I would just make sure with the school you want to apply to that Chemeketa's micro class transfers...just to cover your tail.

Please let me know what you find out. I might take it with you.

She said they have mandatory on campus labs but suggested I check Clackamas Community College because they have an all online one. I looked at it and it shows the tuition for the class as around $400, but I'm sure that's in-state tuition. I'm going to do some checking on it. Here's the link to that school:

The only thing is that I already know that the colleges I'm planning to attend in the future will accept my edukan classes and I already have a spot reserved in the class, so maybe I should just stick with it. I don't really want to drive the 5 hours each way to go to lab twice, but don't know if I can find a cooperative lab locally.

Oh yeah, I also found another school that has it all online, but I don't know anything about them Breyer State university? According to the class syllabus you have 2 tests and a paper and that's it. For the tests, you have 24 hours to complete them after you log into them - that seems like they're just asking you to look everything up while you take the test! Oh, and it's a 6 hour class! Most of the others seem to be 4, edukan is 5. My college requires either a 4 or 5 hour one. I've never seen a 6.
