  • Neurosurgical
  • Obstetrics

Frequently Asked Questions

How many hours should I expect to be engaged in the program each week?

During the first 8 months, you will attend class 3 days a week and use your remaining time to study. During the remainder of the program, you’ll have clinical experience 4 days a week for 10 hours a day, plus class one day a week. It’s a good idea to avoid (as far as possible) any major life changes during this time, such as planning a wedding, having a baby, etc.

Can I work as an RN while I’m in the program?
You may choose to work during the first eight months. Once you begin clinical hours, work is no longer practical or reasonable.
