Class Schedules
Most courses are scheduled as either three or four-hour sessions, held Monday through Friday, anytime from 8:30am - 10:00pm. Some courses are offered on Saturdays and clinical practices are offered 7 days a week, (scheduling based on program requirements and site availability). FNU also offers internet-based distance learning courses.
FNU has a self-scheduling procedure established for some of the programs offered and it is accessed through the FNU Portal. Certificate programs that run sequentially do not have the ability to have classes self-scheduled. Degree Programs have the self-scheduling option except Nursing Programs (ADN, BSN and MSN) as well as Physical Therapist Assistant, Sonography, Radiology and Respiratory Therapy core courses. Specific instructions are posted in https://www.fnu.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Students-self-scheduling-process-step-by-step.pdf
Add/Drop
Changes to the class schedule can be made only during the ADD/DROP period (first week of the semester). Any changes to the schedule must be approved by the Department/Division Head and a Cancel/Add form must be filled out and turned in to the Registrar’s Office. The Cancel/Add form is available at the Registrar’s Office of each Campus and on the FNU website. Distance Learning students must submit the completed form to the Registrar’s Office via either e-mail at registrars@fnu.edu or fax at (305) 362-0595, Attention to: Registrar’s Office. Additional questions about the Distance Learning Department can be emailed to distancelearning@fnu.edu. Class schedule changes are subject to class load and availability. The student must check the FNU student portal to ensure that changes are accepted.
To access or print your class schedule, you must set up an account on the FNU student portal. Instructions are available on the FNU website. A username and password are required. You will also be able to use the FNU Portal to access other pertinent information.
It is the student’s responsibility to withdraw, cancel, or change any courses assigned to him/her during the ADD/DROP period. After the ADD/DROP period, no schedule changes will be accepted for the Term B, unless it is an emergency, and the student will be charged for the change $50.00 per change. Approved changes for Term B can only be done by substituting the class with another course carrying the same credit load and by paying the $50.00 fee. Please note that all changes carry a $50.00 fee even if it just a change of session.
