Medical Assisting Wake Technical CC in NC

Published

I posted this in the North Carolina section, but I haven't received any responses, so I am trying here...

I am considering take the medical assisting program (diploma) at Wake Tech.

I am considering hurrying and sending in an applicationarrow-10x10.png for the program that begins in the Fall.

I am a little confused about the clinical times. I have searched for when the coursesarrow-10x10.png are offered and I am not sure how long a clinical day is.

The thing I am most worried about is that I cannot get financial aid, so I am planning on paying out of pocket. I was told by one person that I would have to take the courses exactly as they are laid out in the plan of study (http://www.waketech.edu/programs-cou...all-admissions)

I already have college credits, so I would not have to take CIS or English. I could also possibly take a Math and Biology this summer that would count for the Fall requirements of the program.

Taking that into account, I would have to take 8 credit hours in the Fall. According to the tuition and feesarrow-10x10.png for Wake Tech, that would cost $662.50 (and that is only if I am able to take math and biology during the summer).

My question is whether I am able to set up a payment plan for the fall? Also, is $662.50 the only cost when I begin the program or would I have to pay for all three semesters at once if I am accepted?

I have contacted the representatives for this program, but I have been unable to get an answer to these two questions.

Any other comments and/or tips for this program are welcome!

Thank you. :)
