Update on Capital Community College's WL. ------------------ just responded to my email. As of now, only one person has been called off the waitlist.

We have not had orientation yet, and a lot is still up in the air. I'm wondering if people will choose to drop their CCC admission if we end up not doing clinicals, or if we do if they are nervous about Covid-19. IDK, but I'm surprised they've only called one person so far.

I'm surprised too. Seems like Capital is way behind compared to Gateway. Here I was thinking I may have missed their call. Apparently not!?.. I gave up after hearing only one person has been called.

Didn’t you get the email? Capital is mostly virtual in the fall.

Gateway will most likely be doing the same

Yeah, but they still said they weren't sure. We still don't know 100% about clinicals either. Or what our schedule will be. I didn't get an email about orientation, though I heard it's online on the 29th?

I just looked at that email again. So I did get the orientation info, I forgot. But the email says they're unsure about many things. I hope we will get some more specifics at orientation.

They were pretty specific about the exact computer equipment you need to do the virtual clinicals etc. They were clear the classes would be virtual. They seemed to have a plan to bring in small groups for skill labs. I did not get the impression they were all that unsure. Frankly, it’s a very good thing as they seem to be interested in keeping everyone safe.

I agree

I'm glad they're keeping everyone safe too. And also the clinical sites, they don't need more than they can handle right now, never mind liability issues. The letter for the amended schedule said everything was tentative, as it's a proposed one. They don't know class scheduling at all yet, and said clinicals may not be for the first part of the semester, "We anticipate that our clinical partners may not be ready to allow students back into their facilities during at least the beginning of the Fall semester.". So they may add them mid semester, or not at all. These are some of the specifics I hope to learn of at orientation.
