How many semesters of nursing classes do you have?

Published

And this means nursing classes only. We're not talking about the gen ed that's also required. I'm just wondering because mine seem a bit long which is 5 semesters... I heard some schools have only 4

EDIT: I MEAN CLINICAL CLASSES

For my ADN at a community college, it's 15 wks for Nursing I & II, 6 wk summer for III, 15 wks for IV and V.

5 traditional semesters with summers off - so 2 1/2 years in time.

ETA - IF I GET IN! I have maybe two more weeks to wait and I'm dying.

I start this summer and for ASN we have 4 semesters. I chose to start early in the summer, we did not have to start until the fall. I am taking 3 classes this summer, one this fall and spring 2012. Then I have to take 2 classes the last two semesters. The classes this summer are 3 credits total.

We have five consecutive semesters. We begin in August of 2011, and complete the fall semester, we immediately move into the spring semester, then transition into the summer semester, then take a two week break, then begin another fall semester, and finish with our last spring semester. I looked up my schedule for first semester classes yesterday, and I have class Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The only breaks we have are Christmas, Thanksgiving, New Year's, the two week break after summer semester, and spring break.
