Thank you for all the information. I am actually excited to start. Do you feel you get enough clinical experience. One of the main things I see people post who are in diploma programs is their programs are better because they get more clinical time. But I know the hspital program by me does two days a week for only an hour more compared to the first and second terms, but then only about a half hour less compared to what you stated the last term. What facilities do you rotate too? Which ones did you like best? Do you have a job lined up through anyof the sites? Any additional info/thoughts would be appreciated.

Thank you so much for responding. Why did you end up switching schools, and which one did you switch to? I heard the program is very hard. I can't believe half the class failed or dropped out. What is it that makes it so hard, if you don't mind me asking? Well I am hoping when it is time that I am one of the first appointments to pick a group and I get the night slot. If not I am sure I could figure things out to go during the day. Again, I appreciate the info. It helped me understand how the night/days work.

I am hoping to find out any information I can on RACC's nursing program from students currently in it, and also from anyone in the night groups. That is what I plan on doing. Thanks all!!

I am starting at RACC in the spring semester to finish my last pre-req and will be starting the ADN program in the Fall. I was just wondering if anyone who has attended this program can give me some insight on the coursework and clinical experience. I work full time now, but I know I will be cutting down to part time once it starts getting tough. I am a CNA with a Hospice agency in Berks county. I will be trying to get into the night groups also, so has anyone attended those classes/clinicals? I appreciate any help and answers I can get! Thank you!!
