Having a hard time deciding on a program

Published

I am having such a hard time deciding between the GWCC part-time or GCC weekend programs. My timestamp is 4/25/08 (I had to use my deferral), so I know for sure that I am going to get placed this time. I live in SE Gilbert, so either school will be a long drive for me. GCC is obviously a longer drive, but I would only have to drive out there twice a week (well, 3 if you count driving to the hospital on Thursdays to choose a patient for clinicals). On the status page it says that GWCC is Monday and Tuesday evenings, clinicals on Friday OR Saturday, and a few clinical labs on Wednesdays and Thursdays. I have four kids, including 3-year-old twins and a 6-year-old with autism, and I am just trying to figure out which one will be better for our family.

I know that no one can make the decision for me (though I wish someone else would, this is stressing me out!), but does anyone have any input, or is there someone who has done either program that could give me some insight?

Also, how are you all planning on paying for your books? That is a big chunck of money to throw down.

What did you decide? They are placing for Spring right now...I admire you for even doing this program...you really have your plate full!

I have no experience with either of those programs so I can't give advise, but just wanted to say good luck with whichever one you decided on! :)

Thank you! I decided on the GCC Weekend, since I know for sure I will only be in class/clinical 2 days a week.
