Hi All- I am hoping to start the daytime program in Fall 2017. For those in the daytime program, what does your schedule look like each week. I know clinicals don't start out as heavy the first term. So, could you please give me a sample of your first term in the program versus now maybe? Thank you!!

Hi! I am starting the program this summer. I received my schedule for the first semester so I thought I would share it with you just so you have an idea of what it is like. Classes are anywhere between about 8-4ish each day mon-thurs for the first 8 weeks and clinical 7-3 on fridays. then clinicals will be thursdays and fridays the second 8 weeks and for the rest of the program. each semester is different but counting the hours for the first 8 weeks I will be in class 18 hours per week and then 8 hours on fridays with clinicals. I hope this helps. And not every day is 8-4...that is just the time frame of where i have classes. my longest day consists of 6 hours worth of classes

Are there people in the program that hold jobs? I work Monday-Friday from 3pm-8pm. Sometimes 4pm to 8pm. Is my work schedule doable with the courses they have you taking monday-friday? Is it flexible enough where I can make it work or no?

Hi Bmkeane22,

I am starting the program soon and already received my schedule. They told us for the day program you must keep 7-5 open. This does not necessarily mean you will have classes 10 hours straight, but one class/clinical may begin at 7 and another class may end at 5pm. However, unlike my first degree and college experience, I have been told that all the other hours you are not in class you will have to be studying a ton! A friend of mine worked in retail one day a week and had to quit her job after being in this program after only a few weeks. She told me they suggest the day program students not to work at all. They also have the option for the night program which I also knew someone that did that. This is more set up for people that must work. He worked daily 7am-3pm and then they had classes 6pm-10pm Monday-Friday. Their clinicals were on Saturdays and Sundays. He said it was really hard finding time to study and he lost alot of sleep but he had to work during the program.

I was recently accepted to Resurrection University and was wondering what your experience was like and if there is anything I could gain from your experiences so far in the program. Thanks so much in advance!

I also got accepted into RU for the Fall 2017, any tips for people taking classes in the evening?

I graduated from ResU this past April. As an eve/weekend student, you will have an easier first semester than daytime students. I suggest you supplement your learning early on with Hurst videos and Mark Klimek lectures for better understanding of material. Nursing school will be the most challenging time of your student life. If you are dedicated, you will do well throughout. Congrats!

Congrats!! Thanks for the tips. After the first semester did you have clinicals saturdays and sundays?

Hi all,

I got accepted to ResU but I am on the wait list for the Fall '17. Has anyone been a wait list ResU?

I was a waitlist student for Summer 2017. I didn't get in so I was first in line for Fall 2017. It worked out better in the end because they wait till the day before classes start to let you know if you were accepted into the term you were waitlisted for.
