      Hi Catherine! The next orientation is this week, May 7th at 10am, and the class will start the following Tuesday, May 13th. We have three different schedules for students:

      Full time ~ 8:30am-5:00pm, Tues-Sat
      3/4 time ~ 8:30am-3:00pm, Tues-Sat
      Part time ~ 8:30am-12:30pm, Tues-Sat

      Students that attend full time can graduate in about 10 months, students that attend 3/4 time graduate in about a year, and part time students graduate in about 18 months.
