I just changed my schedule a little, moving my class up from 4-7 instead of 7-10, so I'll only miss 2 hours of Pref day instead of 3, so I think this way it'll be easier to have my Pref day scheduled around my classes.

Very smart! Just be sure to be persistent if you need to be to. With all the confusion they might forget, but this is your recruitment and your education, and they need to help you out here.

In my experience, the once-a-week, night classes were usually something in my major, which I could take at any time in my four years, or in one case, a science lab. Most of my major's (English/Journalism) classes above the 200 level were 3-hour classes, and a few twice-a-week 90 minute classes. In fact, my last four semesters, my classes were all on Tuesday and Thursday, so I only went to class two days a week. Those days were long, but it gave me time to space out my homework, job, and multiple activities.

None of the"freshman" or 100-level classes were once a week/3-hour classes. I'm mostly wondering if you want to spend your first semester bogged down one night a week. Be aware that you will likely miss cafeteria hours that night (that sucked - when I was in the dorms my only choice was to order out when in class during dinner time), and if you receive a bid, might miss new member class or sisterhood dinners.

Good luck, and I hope that it works out for you.

I actually have it 4 hours a day on Monday, I have a one hour class of it in the early afternoon and then 3 hours later that evening.
If another class I'm interested in opens up, I'll probably switch out of this one, because I agree that it is very time consuming for my first semester.
