In broward county? Or am I the only one? I see the last thread on either one of these schools was from 2011. I'm trying to get into mcfatter for Novembers start date. Orientation was supposed to be Monday but was cancelled due to the storm. So now it's on September 10th. I'm afraid a lot of people may be applying. And that I may not get on. :( was thinking about emailing the counselor and asking her how many they admit each time.

But your husband may need to go get his though. I don't know if they'll let you walk in and get your husbands.

How was orientation Cordero? What's going on with you legacy?

Called Atlantic to ask when our letters were gonna be sent out. She was rude and said to sit tight. And to be patient. ***** She said they will be mailing them out next week and said that's all she can say and hung up. I was like wow. Lol

I was just asking cause I may be out of town for thanksgiving and wanted to make sure I would be here.

Omg I am so sorry!!!! I forgot all about this site and forgot to keep checking it! Orientation was 2 hrs long. Basically going over stuff we already know like the hours uniform rules and also about clinicals when we start them and stuff. I just registered today. I finally had everything I needed for financial aid! Atlantic is so rude! Ugh I need to call them tomorrow and let them know I won't be attending hopefully its not too late for someone else to take my spot! I will be starting nov 19. I'm super nervous!and legacy have u gotten a letter? I'm sure u turned in ur stuff wayyyyy before me u had to receive one no?? I hope so! Anyway ladies keep me posted I enjoy conversating! It will be a great convo once we start school and discuss it! Ah!

I got my letter late, for some reason it was returned to them as undeliverable :( Anyhow i am pushing it back to march. I'm just not 100% sure i want to do LPN as my long term goal is the BSN. So i am debating just going straight to the RN, plus i need so get more money as i cant get money for school. :(

Oh no sorry to hear that :( FIU has a program thats LpN- bsn if u wanted to look into that. Unless u are 100% confident that u will pass the run then don't do it because 80% of the LpN class dropped out because its really difficult. So whatever suits ur needs is what u should do! Good luck and keep us updated

Cordero, how much did all of your books come out to? Did you buy them all at once? Or just the ones you need for the core? Did financial aid cover your books?

No financial aid does not pay for anything except the class. Idid not buy any books yet my friend said wait until the first day. I'm just going to buy them as they're needed. We dd get a book list though with prices. Just for CORE you'll be spending $200 for the books and Manuel's for block 1 - around $260 block 2 - around $280 block 3 - $140 uniforms $20 for top and $12 for bottom lab coat is $25 and all the other clinical supplies are less than $10. She told me you'll eventually get a left over check which would be paying u back for buying all of the books. (If u get financial aid) my first day is mondayiwill let U know

Yeah at Atlantic they told me the same thing. That aid didn't cover books. And to just pay for them and my leftover check would reimburse me. *rolleyes* thanks for the info! The books are not as expensive as I thought.

Went to register today. First and second blocks tuition is $2775. Not including books. The lady was so nice in financial aid. They'll pay for my core books for me. And give me a book voucher.

I'm so cheap, so my friend who just graduated from Atlantic is letting me borrow her textbooks. The must expensive ones like the fundamentals and the anatomy book.

I have a stethoscope already. I think I'll use my own. My friend is even giving me her uniforms so I won't have to buy them. We're the same size. I'll bring all of the books and uniforms to the school to see if its what they're using now just in case.

Registration is on the 26th. Financial aid said be there bright and early. Because its first come first served and I could possibly lose my seat. Them why even pass out letters? She said be to the school early because ppl wait in the parking lot to register. She said its not a game. Lol

Omg lol on registration day at mcfatter u wouldn't even know I feel like I was the only one who registered lol and we didn't pay for block 2 yet just block 1 and that's good that they'll pay for the core books I'm borrowing that from my friend and I already have her bad book (body structure and function) and I ordered my stethoscope a few weeks ago. I heard the schools sucks and u won't pass ur tests cause I can't hear. I mean u do get what u pay for its only $11 at school. I ordered a littman. I'm so excited I still don't have my hubby's tax transcripts but they let me slide cause I showed them proof that he filed so thank god they were super nice! My friend said core is 20 days and we have 22 tests within that time frame!! It's goin to be a crazy first few weeks! I won't start clinicals until January probably but I can't wait! I got my Atlantic letter it says u have to be dressed in uniform with all ur books first day that's cool! We don't wear uniforms until after core :( I wanna wear them the first day

Oh and I also got my I'd yesterday so it's official! Yay

22 tests?! Omg! When I read the letter from Atlantic I was like wow. They Are serious. Uniforms and books the first day?! Lol

I see a student who's currently a student at mcfatter is selling their fundamental book for $80 if you're interested.
