John Tyler - Fall 2016

Published

Who is planning on applying for the JTCC programs for Fall, 2016?

I'm only applying to the hybrid track (thanks to my little kiddos at home, lol)!

Does anyone know if it's advantageous to apply to only one track or two both?

I'm curious why for a hybrid program, the labs are scheduled during the weekday work hours. I guess I assumed that a hybrid program was geared towards a working professional or someone with kids or another reason they couldn't attend during traditional school hours.

I'm not in the hybrid track but I would have assumed the same thing. I'm sure many people will have to readjust their schedules to fit the classes now

The hybrid program still takes place during traditional hours, but you spend fewer hours face to face. It wouldn't be possible to work a M-F 8-5 job, but you are afforded more flexibility since you can do your lecture hours on your own time.

Yeah I thought it would be a great option as a SAHM. I may not be able to make it work since my husband works an 8-5.

I'm also a SAHM, and my husband works an 8-5. My oldest is in K. But my two younger ones will be going to a full day preschool. We will be paying almost $900 a month in childcare for me to attend. We have been saving for about 2 years.

Has anyone started prepping for our start in the fall?? Reading up on topics? Purchasing a stethoscope? I want to get as much ready as possible, but I feel like it's best to wait until after our meeting in May. Thoughts?

I think I'm going with a Littmann III for my stethoscope, and white leather Skechers for shoes. For my tablet I'm thinking a Samsung Galaxy Lite (7") so it's easy to put in my scrub pocket for clinicals.

This stuff is sitting in my Amazon cart, but I'm not purchasing until after orientation in case they give us more information that changes my purchase choices.

Hi! I'm new here but I just got my acceptance for the Fall 2016 Hybrid Track! I'm so excited to get started and meet some of the people that will be going through this crazy ride with me!

Great! Me, too!

I was also looking at the littman and possibly some new balances for shoes. Not sure about the tablet yet. Hopefully I can buy everything soon since money will be tight during the program.

I sent my response email saying I accepted admissions and the response was just a quick, "Thank you for your response" or something like that. Is that what everyone else got?? I'm so paranoid about making sure they got it so there is no confusion later on...

That's the same response I got so I hope I did it correctly!

I'm personally going to go with some sketchers for shoes and leaning toward a Microsoft surface for the tablet but going to wait till the info session to see exactly what programs we need to run etc!

Same response I got, too. Anyone got the "more information" they said would be coming before orientation?
