Hi

The program started in Sept and was over in Dec of the following year but we actually didn't have our pinning ceremony until January so couldn't take the boards until after that point.

It was pretty much a full time day program ( at the time I went which was 08-09).

We did most of our clinicals at Cooper Hospital and at a LTC facility across the street. We were not required to drive far from the school to do our clinicals although on the days of clinicals the people that lived far away had a long drive.

Generally we had to arrive at clinicals by 645p and stay until 3p

Class days varied but always during the day.

Hope this helps!

I'm sorry it took so long to reply :-( Haven't been on much.

I thought it was kind of hard to find a job. Most places wanted an experienced nurse and I was told in more than a few places that I was up against Rns who were out of work. After applying at a bunch of different places, I was finally offered a position at a LTC facility ( a very nice one ) but I would have had to work full time 11p-7a. Really wasn't up for that but I couldn't do 3p-11 with my home life. I was offered a job in a dermatology office which I decided to take because of the normal hours. Will probably be sorry in the long run because not learning what I should be learning but very interesting all the same. Make about 20.00/hr

You have to really keep in touch with them every chance you get to make sure you have everything ready. They are very unorganized.
