I am an independent student who has to work to pay for a living i choose this school because of flexibility if that is taken away I won’t be able to work and might be forced to stop school because I need to work to pay my bills please consider this. I need to finish school.

The availability of online testing was a decisive factor for many of us when choosing Pacific College. As nursing students balancing rigorous clinical rotations, demanding study schedules, personal caregiving responsibilities, and employment commitments, the flexibility of online examinations is essential to our academic success and overall well-being.

I respectfully ask the school to reconsider the decision to change exams from online to in-person. Many of us enrolled because of the flexibility the school offered, and online exams were an important part of that. This change creates challenges for students who work, have families, or live far from campus. Please consider keeping online exams .

We respectfully request that remote examinations remain available for currently enrolled students. Many of us enrolled based on the program’s remote format and arranged our work, family, transportation, and clinical responsibilities accordingly. Requiring in-person exams would create additional hardship and expenses.. We ask that the new policy apply only to students entering the program after the change, while current students are allowed to complete the program under the format ori

Why wait 5-6 semesters to implement new rules. We learned how to study and take exams from home in our comfort and away from distractions. What’s being created is a lot of back ground noise…. You should do this for new up coming students that have been trained for this since the first semester SMH

As a Cohort 5 BSN student, I strongly oppose the decision to require in-person examinations after students have already completed most of the program under a different academic model. I enrolled at Pacific College specificall

False Advertising. If exams are going to be in person, so should all our course lectures.

The school does not offer lectures, either in person or virtually, and students already teach ourselves the material. If academic integrity is truly the concern, professor led lectures should be offered alongside in person exams. Instead, mandatory in person exams are being implemented with minimal notice despite the BSN Student Manual and the hybrid structure we enrolled under.

I enrolled based on the promise of a flexible, online program. Mid-program policy reversals on scheduling and in-person testing have cost students jobs and made our lives unmanageable. We should get what we were promised.

- Travel inconvenience. I live on Long Island. Getting there takes a lot of time.- 2 hours. Also a financial burden because of that. - Additional childcare costs. - taking the exam without stress in my home at the time I choose helps me focus best.

The unexpected change to in-person exams creates a severe, un-budgeted financial hardship due to traveling costs from my home, alongside an extreme childcare barrier for my toddler. Will there be a cost-of-attendance adjustment or an institutional grant to help offset the sudden travel and childcare expenses this new policy creates? I have so many questions.

I am the only bread runner in my house. I have a special child to take care, and already adjusting with my work for the clinical rotation. We all have our own inconvenience, yet we are trying to give our best as possible. Kindly please consider our inconvenience, and give us the opportunity to persuade our education to achieve our goals.

Pacific College has advertised its nursing program as offering ‘100% coursework online.’ Many students relied on those representations when deciding to enroll. The newly announced requirement for mandatory in-person nursing examinations materially changes the educational experience that many current students reasonably expected.

Being able to take my exams from home is very important to me because I am already making major sacrifices to continue my education. I have had to reduce my work hours to attend school while paying my tuition out of pocket, which has placed a significant financial strain on me. Traveling to campus solely to take exams requires additional time and expense that I simply cannot afford. Additionally, the cohort that graduated before mine was allowed to take exams remotely, and that was the policy in

Students have many obligations. Having online exams give those with other responsibilities and commitments a fighting chance to complete exams on a time that is convenient.
