late start summer term for prereqs in Chicago?

Published

Hello,

Does anybody know of any colleges to take nursing prereqs in Chicago that has a summer term that starts a bit later in the summer? I'm planning to move from New York to Chicago around the beginning of June and continue taking my prereqs there, but the City College of Chicago seems to start its summer term right at the beginning of June and I don't think I'll make it in time. Here in New York, at CUNY, they have two summer sessions, one starting in mid-July I believe, anybody know of something similar in Chicago?

thanks.

Liu2,

Take them all online and never leave home!

You can get all of your pre-requisites out of the way this summer at Ocean County College in Toms River NJ. Its a local community college that offers virtually every nursing prerequisite totally online. It is possible to take your Math, English, Psych, A&P I &II, Micro all online this summer. Then go to the nursing program of your choosing. Their credits seem to transfer all over.

I think you do the same with CCCOnline as well.

There is only 1 summer session at the chicago city colleges. Unless you need a class like child psychology or nutrition, you're probably out of luck. Those you could take online through the city colleges. I'm taking nutrition over the summer that way.

Contrary to what the poster above has said, I wouldn't take any of the sciences online. I doubt most schools would accept them, as they won't have a real lab component to them.
