I honestly wouldn't recommend working while in the program! It's Monday-Thursday. However, it is doable! Especially if you have to pay bills! You have to do what you have to do! Remember nursing school is temporary not forever!

That's so true!! I'm full time right now. I like my independence but I may cut back on work.

I'll be at Henry! They definitely made me second guess working in semester 2.

How is the program going for the ones that made it in? How is the schedule?

The program is definitely hard & stressful at times! The schedule for the first semester was Monday-Thursday. Once you get into the second senester, you'll have clinicals or virtual Tuesdays and Thursdays. Exams are every other week

That's understandable! What were the times for Mon-thur & what days are clinicals? And you mean like virtual lectures at home on tuesdays and thursdays after the first semester?

Lecture is from 8am-3pm! For clinicals, the days are Tuesdays and Thursdays from like 8am-3pm. Virtual days will be for the people who don't go to clinicals first. You'll be traveling back and forth to the Henry or flint campus for virtual days!

Having to travel to flint campus is crazy! But honestly the program seems very doable! I thought clinicals would for sure start at 6am like most schools. I have 3 small kids so knowing this ahead of time is helping me already. Are clinicals at henry piedmont ?

I'm sorry clinicals starts at 6:30am!! The virtual simulations are the ones that start at 8:30am! Clinical placement depends on where the instructor puts you. You could be at piedmont Henry, piedmont fayette, encompass health, or upson regional! You also have to find your own mental health hours during the second semester as well!
