Just have a couple of questions....
1. How many students started out at the beginning... a full class or were there less?
2. If a person is not an alternate, but there are any spots open even after the alternates, do they call the next person in line who didnt make it as an alternate, to fill that space?

Hello! I am currently in my second semester in Weatherford's ADN program. I am part of the first spring night/weekend class and we started with 20 students. We have had one student drop this semester & we picked up 4 students that failed and had to redo this semester.
To answer your second question, yes. I know of a student in 3rd semester that was not even an alternate and she was called at the last minute to join the class. So it is possible, although this did not happen with my class. If you are referring to the current semester, I do not think they would still call to fill spots, as I am pretty certain that they are full.
I hope this answers your questions and let me know if there are any other questions.
Thanks SN2010! You did answer my questions.
As for any other questions I have... well I want to know EVERYTHING. LOL!! How is the program - more or less difficult that you thought it would be?
