I know the transition program at PCC is one day a week for class and one day a week for clinicals. Class time is either 8-4 or 1-7. There is also mandatory lab time (2 hours minimum per week). Clinicals are day or evening as assigned. They ask for your preference in the class meeting after you have been accepted, but there is no guarantee you will get the day you write down. We had our meeting with generic program students and the days per week was the same (one day for class, one day for clinical). Go the school website http://www.polk.edu/INSTRUCT/Mash/nursing/index.htm and you can get more info about pre-reqs and class times.

Boog'sGirl724 pretty much summed it up! I'm gradating form the Transition program this August and its the only night option there is. You do end up going to class 2x a week for the first week of each semester, but then it is only 1 day/week for class and 1 day for clinicals. Best of luck picking a program! I learned a lot and feel very confident taking my boards after PCC's program! It's tough,but well worth it!
