Ivy Tech 'Fall 2010' Applicants

taranator · Sep 22, 2009

Emmi,

Have you already signed up for your math and English classes? I'm taking those same ones and maybe we can be in the same class? That would be cool :) I'm also taking aphy102 with FH out of Kokomo (I think?). At least, so far. I'm hoping to get some good information about instructors from people who have taken 102 online.

hey taranator-

i am currently signed up for engl 211 for 16 weeks (crn-37604) & math 118 for 16 weeks (crn-37683) & comm 102 for 8 weeks (crn-36617) i am wondering if i should do the full 16 weeks for english and math though. i know i want to take a full 16 weeks for the aphy 102 but i am not sure if i want to do it online or not...i am kind of nervous to take it either way lol. this semester i had to take aphy 101 (starting 2nd 8 weeks) due to scheduling and my wanting to be able to apply by the april 1st deadline.

don't do 102 online. seriously. its so much better in the classroom.

i took 118 in either 8 or 10 weeks and i think comm was the same. i tried doing engl 111 in a shortened term and fell really behind, so i would suggest 16 weeks for english. jmo though.

i have no idea what i am going to take other than, aphy 101, engl 211, and maybe psyc...i need 2 classes in addition to anatomy and english!

hey kgle- they were sending out emails to some people last week advising they could register early. so then i went into campus connect and did a search and there were some classes available, although there are still a lot that say "nr"

also thanks for the advice on comm 102, i am going to change that around. i am taking engl 111 now, 16 weeks, because i know myself and writing papers do not get along (although i did get my 1st paper back and got an a-woo!)

math i may change to an 8 week session, but i believe when i was registering the 16 week was the only one showing open. i may even take 211 on campus as well just because english is not my strongest subject.

Yeah I just checked my email. They are so dumb...the email thanked me for my interest in Ivy Tech and advised me to fill out my FAFSA, take the skills assessment, etc lol. I have been a student for almost 2 years now!

Looks like Lawrence still isn't open to register for, but I am getting my online courses scheduled as we speak!

HAHAHAHA call me lame but Ivy Tech has a Love, Romance, and Relationship course:

Interactive course examining the key elements of healthy relationships. Explores the main problems that damage relationships. Presents research findings on successful and unsuccessful relationships. Examines how couples can improve intimacy, romance, and emotional connection. Explores the impact of one¿s emotional and relationship history on current and future romantic relationships. Presents practical, scientific-based skills for improving relationships.

I actually might take that next semester to fill up my schedule! It actually looks like it could be interesting :)

KGLE-

WOWOW! Seriously though, it does sound like a nice little filler class. When and IF I get into the nursing program I know the last two semesters I will need some extra classes per fin aid reqts and was planning on taking Spanish definitely and now I think I will add that to the list as well.

Emmi7 · Sep 23, 2009

Question...has everyone who is planning on applying by April 1 already attended the info session? I attended one in July but I think I want to go again to one closer to me turning in my app because I am so scared that I will apply and they will say they have no record of me attending one lol.

Also what exactly is on the applications? I mean do we have to write an essay on why we want to be a nurse or anything like that?

kgle · Sep 23, 2009

No essay, just informational stuff. I went to a session in 2008, but want to go to a session that's more updated so I am going to go to one. Looks like I will have to go to the one in November since the next one falls about an hour before class starts. I may try that one...but I am not sure how long they usually run and if I can get away with sneaking out right before 2.

Emmi7 · Sep 23, 2009

Thanks!

I have class on Thursdays too at 2pm so I won't be going to the October session, I might go to the one in November or just wait until 2010

I had to register online for a session here in Evansville and it's not until November! I registered in May. Crazy, yeah?

I've had three of my Spring classes set up since the end of summer (yeah, call me anal lol) and those were APHY102, ENGL211, and MATH118. They are all 16 week courses, but I'm really considering taking the English course in 8 weeks. I took ENGL111 this past summer and passed with flying colors. I'm kind of worried about the math class, though. I really have to work hard to even get a B in math classes, lol, and I'm very, very glad that they are prereqs!
