NURSING 117 REGISTRATION AND CLASS INFORMATION

This information includes the booklist and course overview.

REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR NURSING 117 & 103        

 During the first three weeks of Nursing 117 the class meeting times vary slightly from those listed, since you do not go to the clinical sites during that time but have class on campus.  (Review the class syllabus). Nursing 103 is a lecture only class.

Students registering for NURS 117 must first enroll in a clinical (CLN) section and will automatically be enrolled in the lecture (LEC). Students must also register in one of the LAB classes. Don't forget to also register for NURS 103.

Notes:  Students must be available on clinical days for variable clinical assignments from 7am-8pm for 10 hours of clinical per week.
