Okay, I've been told that the nursing program at FCCJ lasts 3 semesters. If I go in the Fall of next year, will I go to school Fall, Spring, Summer and then be done? Or will I go Fall and Spring take the Summer off and resume classes in the Fall? Just wondering. I'm trying to figure out when I could possibly graduate... if i get in, that is.
Also, does anyone know a number I could call at the school or something about getting a grade changed? I had a teacher last semester that messed up my grade and agreed to change it but has not since responded to any e-mails or phone calls (I believe she is out of the office because she doesn't teach Summer classes). I am just getting worried because I do not want to have to take it again... especially when I did the work and earned my A the first time! I'm not sure if there is a deadline for getting the grade changed... but even if there's not I want to get it done as soon as possible so it will be one less thing to worry about.
Anyway, if anyone has any info on either one of these things, please let me know. Thanks bunches!

The LPN program is 3 semesters long but the ADN program is 4. It is straight through with no breaks. The same thing happened to me and I called around, not too sure of the exact number, but my teacher was adopting a child out of country and put an I for my grade. They can actually change it whenever, there is no deadline. So just make sure to get with her when classes start back up and have some of your work and grades ready to show her. =)
Thanks so much! I have no idea why but I could have sworn it was only 3 semesters lol. Wishful thinking? Thanks for letting me know there was know deadline with grade changes too. That eased my mind a little. I saved all my work and everything in case she wants proof lol. A little precautious but hey, it's my grade! I want the right one lol.
