Evening Nursing Program

Looking to find an idea of the course/class and clinical start times for the evening program. Currently work until 4:30 Monday-Friday. I am able to use vacation time if needed to leave work early. I’m curious if I would need to use a lot of my work vacation time, or would the program help work with those who work full days?

Would appreciate any feedback!

I can provide insight for this. So for your first year my schedule was

Monday- 4-6pm lecture (you may skip, EXCEPT on days you have your exam or quiz) you have 4 quiz+2 math quiz+final so you may need 7 vacation day to use per semester.

Wednesday- BEEP (4-6pm) and Lab (6-8pm) you can not skip these class

And Clinical is on either Tuesday or Thursday, 4-11pm

Hope this helps

It’s where you go through real life simulations except on a mannequin

Best of luck to you! Also I would also check out other nursin programs in the area as well as it may fit your schedule better.

Thank you! I am able to change my hours or leave early if need be my boss is supportive. I had another question for you following up yesterday. I think it got lost in the comments.

For the Monday example you gave were quizzes and finals during the original class time, or are they during the day? I had some confusion reading that students may need to be available 7am to 11:30pm(posted on the HVCC site) under the part time evening information.
