Has anyone registered for Spring 2010 Nursing I at CCRI?

[MrsPeep]

I can't believe I'm finally registered for Nursing I! Time is flying. Anyone hear yet about Orientation? I'm wondering where/when it's going to be.

[Jubilayhee]

I registered but I'm concerned how there are so few that have. The class might be cancelled if there are not enough people.

[MrsPeep]

I thought of that today. Do you think there could be more people who were accepted after this open application period that could be registering? I will be crushed if the class is canceled.

Hi guys...

I registered yesterday too. I was just online and see that there are only 12 registered so far.

I figured they are still having a hard time finding enough people to fill the class because a few days

ago there were 120 slots available, and Sunday there were suddenly only 80 slots.

I haven't heard anything about orientation either. I don't see how they could cancel the class. Think of all the teachers that would displace.

The last time I talked to Ruby, she said she was still very busy processing applications, and with the last

application period only closed several days ago, I think registrations will pick up.

I guess a bright side would be a smaller class size for us!

I can't believe how fast the time is going by though. I can't wait!!!

[MrsPeep]

North, I hope you're right! I also figure that people may not be as quick to register because they're "guaranteed" a slot once they've been accepted to the program. It's hard to imagine they would cancel the whole program, so hopefully we will get some more classmates. A smaller class will be nice though.

With the holidays coming, things are really going to fly by. Hopefully we'll find out more soon! If anyone hears news, post here and I'll do the same!

Just thought I'd check in....

It looks like registrations are slowly picking up and that makes me happy. Also good to see they have

now added the instructors to the course.

Guessing nobody has heard anything about orientation yet? There is only a month left of classes for this semester, and I would think they would want to hold orientation before the holiday break?!

Of course, I've never actually received an 'acceptance' letter, so I think they are a little unorganized. All I got was an email saying. "you're all set".

At least I'm registered!!!

[MrsPeep]

I was glad to see we have more classmates too! I talked to my friend about it (she's in Nursing II), and she said that people are generally slow to register because they think they're either automatically in because they're accepted or they think that the computer will add them in later somehow!

I haven't heard anything about Orientation yet. I hope we hear soon, just so we can have some time to get our books/supplies and get ready. It's only a little over two months away!

From what I understand is that all orientation is discussing clinical schedules, books, materials. I dont get why they just dont tell us that info the first day of class, like most courses.

Hi guys...

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Time is flying by and Jan. 25th is going to be here in no time.

Just thought I'd share that I got my orientation information in the mail today.

Looks like Wednesday December 16th at 1:00pm is the date.

They also included a bunch of information with dates and locations we'll be able to see our clinical assignments, what we'll need for clinicals and whatnot.

I am really so excited to finally get started on this journey and can't wait!!

[MrsPeep]

Thanks for the update North! I'm going to check my mail now! I look forward to seeing you all there!

[Northofnowhere]

So tomorrow is orientation. It appears that there are only 3 of us on here that are actually attending CCRI in the spring(or there are lurkers that are hiding in the wings)

I know orientation isn't much, but I am excited.

Hope to see you guys there tomorrow(even if I won't have a clue as to who you actually are!)

Have fun at orientation! In no time you'll be starting school!
