Hi All! I'm looking to apply to the NCC nursing program in the spring of 2019! I have done what seems like hours of research especially on this site of their points system for admissions, number of seats, etc. but I have been unable to find what the class schedule is like in terms of day vs evening. The only thing I did see was that if you begin classes in spring, the only option is day classes? Is this true? What is the schedule like for the nursing classes themselves. I would be taking the 1 nursing class per semester only, because I have all of the other classes already done(or will be done by the end of this summer) I work full time in an operating room as a surgical tech so I'm just curious as to what my options would be in terms of classes and my work schedule. Any input is appreciated! Thanks guys :)

Yes, you are right about the Spring semester... it's day program only. As for the exact time of classes, I'm not sure... but day classes are probably anywhere between 8am-4pm, and evening is most likely between 5pm-11pm. I'm sure they will have information sessions in the fall, so you can probably get this information there. Otherwise, are you a current NCC student? If so, just look up schedule of classes for the fall semester for each nursing class section, that should give you an idea of the hours.

Hello ! As a recent graduate I can confirm that Spring semester is day ONLY. They accept around ~50 students? I know in the fall they usually accept day and night for a total of ~ 100 students. NCC is actually becoming a 4 year program (the first of its kind) starting spring 19 and the program is very unique. Good luck !
Wow really ? Also I'm planning on applying for spring but need to know what do you think is a good score ? My score currently is 144.5

Definitely find a good group to study with, always ALWAYS stay on top of the reading because they catch up FAST. Exams are strictly exam based (meaning extra assignments are either pass/fail and if they do count as "extra points" they add up AFTER you pass the class w/ a 75). For example, if your exam score is a 74.5 (they round up) you passed, and now you have maybe 3% from assignments you get bumped to a 77.5. If you are at a 74 for exam grade you failed & won't have that 3% to boost you to pass.
