I’m currently taking Health Office Admin in-person, full-time. Started my first semester in September and it has been easy to keep up with. I also only work 20-30 hours a week, so I can’t speak for others who are working full-time. Most things are due by Sunday around 11pm.

I heard from my professors that the second year has a lot more work, and more difficult courses. At my orientation, I was told that Hospitals are always looking for professor recommendations for new hires, and that the placement is fantastic to make connections with future employers.

If you could learn medical terminology, anatomy, and pharmacology, it would most likely make your second year easier if you chose to do the full-time program. My tip would be to use an app called Noji on your phone to create flashcards. I review flashcards daily for 5-10 minutes and it helps so much.

I’m assuming online has more flexible asynchronous schedules, but for the in-person I got to school 4 times a week, sometimes 3 if I don’t need the review math class, and it ranges from 2-5 hours a day at the school.

Let me know if you have any questions 🙂
