Hello!
I haven't seen a thread for FSCJ Spring 2016, so I thought I'd start one. Who all is planning on applying for this term start? If anyone is in the program already, any advice??
Look forward to chatting with you all. :)
Can someone send me the application. [email protected] I will be applying for the bridge track program next week. I'm pretty excited
While there are no guarantees about clinical schedules in the community, generally speaking, the faculty and school is closed on the weekends, so daytime classes have the weekends and holidays off. That said, students are encouraged to do what they must to maintain flexible schedules. Changes are often made last-minute. I wouldn't make any plans to be out of town or pre-committed to anything else, including a job, while in nursing school. This is a good time to organize priorities to favor the task at hand -- success in Nursing School.
Take a look at the class schedules for Nursing Concepts on the FSCJ website and you'll get a rough idea of what the schedules are like:

Thanks Jess, I won't let it discourage me from applying to get in. I know I have the points to have a really good chance. Now I have to find something to occupy my time until the summer because all of my pre-reqs are completed. I don't want to take a CNA course because I've heard being a CNA will burn you out before school.
i am currently a CNA and have been since 2012. So basically the entire time i have been taking my pre-reqs and doing my AA. It's tough but it will prepare you for nursing school. Not only that but it will make you a better polished nurse. I have worked with nurses who have been CNAs before becoming Nurses and they are most of the time better with patient care than those who are not.Trust me, its the worst when you have to work with nurses who dont know how to help you when needed. Nursing isnt just about passing meds, starting IVs, doing Labs etc. Its all the other CNA work too. As ive noticed most of the newer nurse tend to think theyll never wipe butt.
