I used to hear it was one of the best programs.. now all I hear is to choose another program if you have the chance . I will still go if I get accepted but also not looking forward to it.

Im not too sure about the schedule for classes and clinical but based on your experience, is there time for a part time job? 

It really depends on your schedule, which you don't receive until right before the semester starts. I can't confidently give you an idea of what it will be like because my first semester was much different than how the subsequent first semester students' schedule was handled.. We're moving to a new building this year too, so the structure of classes are most likely going to change drastically. That's just my intuition though, not to say this is for sure. We're usually thrown into the semesters blindly and we scramble to make things work in the first couple weeks.

so its mostly the program that picks out your schedule? And we don't register for clinicals or classes ourselves?

wow, the wait for a decision from the nursing program has been ridiculously long. I was looking forward to PCC but this process has very been off-putting.

I called today just to inquire once again about when we should be receiving the decisions; the rep I spoke with said that typically it does take about 10 weeks for them to send them off, and since we're currently in the 10th week, if I don't receive anything from them by July 11th then to follow up. 😞 The wait is mentally exhausting

I need them to send me either the acceptance or rejection by next week I got accepted to APU BSN transfer program but it's really expensive that's literally my last resort if I don't get into PCC. I have until July 7 to accept the offer so PCC has to hurry 😭 I'm not trying to be in debt
