LuckSweet said:Also, I'm hoping to get onto the waitlist for the Microbiology Summer class at Gateway, it's the only coreq I have to take and I just don't want to do it during my nursing courses this fall 😕 but if I'm not able to take it during the Summer, it is what it is!
Yeah same it's the only coreq I need but I registered for the NVCC Summer class. It's 3 days a week in person though which kinda sucks but like you said I want to get it out of the way

Awesome! thanks for the update I was wondering about that.
Anyone else going into nursing this fall still need to take microbio? I am trying to decide when would be best for me to take it, I cant do Summer because all the spots are full.

I'm in the same boat. I'm due to start at TRCC this fall and got an email suggesting deferring to Spring if we haven't taken micro. I don't love the idea of deferring, but did put in a request. But if I'm not able to switch, I'm not about to put off the program another year and go through the application process again. I just kind of expected that it would be a little extra chaotic and a lot of extra hard work for a semester doing both. 🤷♀️

Wow! That is so surprising to me that they'd suggest deferring to Spring! I don't blame you at all for not wanting to do that. Especially when in the nursing packet it suggests taking it second semester, in capitals individual packet it says *please* take it by Spring 2025 semester as well. Ideally id love to be able to take it Summer 2025..

I also have to take Micro and was wondering why they don't allow you to take it Summer 2025. As long as it's completed before fall of 2025 I don't see why it would be an issue. Maybe I'll email her back and ask 😬 I'll be that girl.

Agreed! Please let me know if you ask, I definitely want to know as well, if you don't I will.

Also, my stats were:
Nursing GPA: 3.64
A&P1: A
TEAS: 85.6
Just in case anyone else is in the same boat, I emailed them and they stated that their program starts in the Spring, not the Fall 🙂

I work in childcare full time M-F 9-5 now, but I've done all my co-reqs already, so I should only have one class day, and I want to try to see if I can get my clinical placement in the evening or weekend so I can continue working 4 days a week. As is probably the case for many of us, I think I will be taking out a small amount of loans so I won't have to stress about money while in the program
