| Dental Hygiene students, or Dental Hygienists! Can you inform me about the Dental Hygiene Program? I am happy to say that after 2 years of trying to get into the Dental Hygiene Program, I finally recieved my exceptance letter in the mail! The program is high-demand & very competative. My hard work has finally paid off, but it is now that I really have to focus, b/c I only have one chance.
The program starts in Fall 2008 & I am expecting our 3rd child in Summer 2008. I have yet to get any inforamtion regarding the program, other than that I am accepted.
So here are my questions to you Dental Hygiene Students, Former Students, Dental Hygienists, or anyone else with knowledge of the program:
1) Do I get to choose my schedule? Or is it handed to me & I have to except whatever it is?
2) Can I take any of the coarses on-line?
3) Can you give me any other pertanent information about the program itself?
My husband's work schedule if flexible, but I plan on exclusively breastfeeding our baby. If I could choose my school schedule to work around my baby that would be great.
I am attending Monroe Community College in Rochester, NY, but any advice, from anyone, from any school, is greatly appreciated.
A little bit more about me:
I am a Wife to a wonderful and supportive Husband, Mother of 2 beautiful girls (4 and 18mo.), and 21 weeks pregnant with baby # 3! I go to school FT, and was just accepted into the Dental Hygiene Program. I just quit my job as Dental Assistant. My Husband works FT and we rearrange our schedules so that one of us is always home, and are children are not in daycare. |
