Noob RN program question

Published

I spoke with an adviser at Ivy Tech months ago. I had it in my head that if I was accepted into the program in January of 2010, I would be done by December or May 2011? I'm still confused. The way things were explained to me turned to mush in my head. The program is supposed to be twenty months. Does that time include taking classes like the math, a&p 1 and 2, basically anything not under the NURS caption? I plan on getting into an adviser again for more clarification but times been kinda tight lately. Any clarification would be appreciated.

At Ivy Tech you need the four classes to get into the program. ENG 101, PSY 101 and A&P I and II. The nursing program is 4 semesters, so if your first semester is fall 2010 you would take nursing class and clinicals and maybe speech. Spring 2011 you would take nursing class and clinicals along with Microbiology. You would then complete the second year: fall 2011 and spring 2012. I just went to the information session this past week and they are offering optional summer nursing clinicals. I plan to submit my application april 15 for Fall 2009 and go through the summer, I should be done Dec 2010!!!

good luck- hope I clarified it for you.:wink2:
