Thanks! I’m actually currently at WCC and I’m trying to see if there are other online colleges that they will accept since the Summer one is condensed into either a 5 week program and 3 weeks (hard with my current schedule with working full time and taking other classes) and I also heard the professors didn’t get good reviews with their online classes.

I think professor Rieder does online or maybe a 5 week course (dont remember) but her class is pretty easy if you can get her.

Hey! I am in the first sem now and is going well but we are getting adjustments to focus on school only and there is tons of work cuz we are online for all the classes.

every semester have different time and day like for me I have three days is classes and one day is clinical online with the patient

everyday is basically from 9-5 or more

but for clinical is only from 7:00 am -1:30pm

Thank you! That’s really helpful! I hope things are back to normal going into the fall. I’m terrified of doing it all online.

CONGRATS! the workload is crazy as expected. even if there isn't an exam coming up you should always be studying your notes/reading because you can feel like you're falling behind if you don't stay on top of everything. it can be overwhelming at first but I've learned to just take it a day at a time. my schedule is Monday-Thursday, and different times everyday since each class is only once a week. my earliest class is at 7 and my latest class ends at 6pm. so the timing of classes will be in between that time frame.

Hi All. I just got accepted to Fall 2020 and was wondering how the program is? Where is most of the clinicals? And is someone cummuting to campus? I live in Brooklyn and was debating should I move close to school.

Hi ! I’ve also been accepted to Fall 2020 and I wanted to know if there any current students working full time and in the program full time? If so, how is it and are you able to balance work and school ?

CONGRATS. overall the program is good, theres issues with administration but most of the professors are amazing. just stay on top of your studies and you will do fine and will learn a lot. we didn't do in person clinicals this semester but clinicals can be anywhere in nyc. I live in brooklyn too & will be commuting once we are in person. if moving has more pros than cons for you then I guess you can move closer but I don't think its absolutely necessary. but do what works best for u

Hi!

I noticed you mentioned that clinical are anywhere in NYC. I was wondering if the clinical are only in NYC or would they be in westchester county as well?

thanks in advance!
