Montgomery College, how long?

U.S.A. Maryland

Published

I sent in my application for the fall at Montgomery College today. The deadline is March 1st. Does anyone know about how long I can expect to wait before I get an answer?

Thx,

Nikki

Ok, sounds like a plan & looking forward to it!

What am I missing here?...first aid certification? The only cert. I see is for CPR.

I didn't see anything about first aid.

I found this training location for the BLS

http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/classConnector.jsp?pid=ahaweb.classconnector.course.schedule&_requestid=511974

hopefully the link works.

Thanks Nikki, the link worked. Are you going w/ America Heart Assoc.?

Andrea had mentioned first aid- wondering if we need cert. for that also.

I'd love to meet up before orientation! I'm very familiar with the school and the area. Downtown Silver Spring is right down the street; about 6 blocks down. If you're coming from Georgia Avenue, you'd turn left onto Wayne Avenue and there's a parking garage on your left hand side right before you get to Fenton Street. Within walking distance, there's a Panera, Noodles & Company, Starbucks, you name it. If you guys wanna meet at one of those places around 11:30, that should give us enough time to eat, chat, and still get to orientation on time at 1. Just a suggestion :)

Just noticed those directions are pretty vague! I meant, if you're taking the beltway and get off on Georgia towards Silver Spring, that's the way you'd take to get to the garage. If you're taking the beltway and get off on Colesville Road (Rt. 29) towards Silver Spring, you'd turn left on Fenton and right on Wayne and the garage would be on your right hand side.

I just reserved a spot for BLS-healthcare providers through AHA:

Class Meeting Time:

June 24, 2011 12:24 PM-4:24 PM Eastern

Instructor Name: Jeremy Gruber

Class ID: 297900

Number of seats available: 18

Organization Name: Rescue One, Training for Life, Inc.

Training Center ID: MD20722

Kristian - did you have to pay for it already? I was afraid to register, thinking I'd have to pay, so I thought I should wait until orientation to get all the info. But if there is no risk, then I will sign up too.

Andrea - sounds good! We can figure out all the details as the date gets closer.

Kristian - nevermind, I just registered there too! Any idea how much it costs though????

MC charges $88 for their course. I couldn't find any fees on the site. It shouldn't be any higher than MC, it could be even less. Did you reserve for the same day?

BTW- MC's courses are already full.
