Hi everyone!I am starting the York/Seneca 4 years collaborative Nursing this September, and I got a schedule that makes it hard for me to pick my son up from a daycare since 1 day I finish at 6pm and another one at 7pm.Anyone has a schedule with courses no later than 5pm, hates it and wants to switch?That would be a great help for me.My schedule is like this:Monday: 1 lecture: 11:40 - 13:30Tuesday: 2 lectures: 8:00-10:45, 12:35-14:25Wednesday: 1 lecture: 15:20-18:05Thursday: 3 lectures: 11:40-13:30, 14:25-17:10, 17:10-19:00 Friday: no lectures (one online thingy that can be accessed at any time according to the scheduling office).

It is what the head of the scheduling department told me. She said that if I find someone who is willing to swap she is going to do it.

futureRN_Anastasia 120 Posts Aug 16, 2011 Of course not. Someone from my school and from the same program, but who got a different schedule. They randomly assigned predefined schedules, and now they don't want to change these unless students find each other and agree to swap between themselves.

futureRN_Anastasia 120 Posts Aug 20, 2011 I didn't post any students' names, and posting lecture numbers, times and the lecturers who teach them at these particular times, are not infringement of any privacy.

Another way is to join a York/Seneca Nursing facebook group and do a little announcement there. I'm not sure how successful you will be but at least it's something. If you know what time and the location of the other class, you can attend it one day and ask the prof to make an announcement for you, if they're kind enough. Unfortunately, I know a lot of my friends and classmates don't like the evening classes when I was still in my program because by the time you get home it's quite dark already. Do the best you can.
futureRN_Anastasia 120 Posts Aug 20, 2011 27400, thanks! I don't have the link. I think the first year students don't have it. And the scheduling coordinator is away until September. FB group is a splendid idea, I will do it too, thanks. I hope I will find someone at the orientation if nothing else fails. We will see.
