I've been accepted into a BSN program and will start this September. I assume the school will provide me with an extensive list of items I need to purchase (stethoscope, uniform, shoes, etc.) I'd like to start buying a few things now so I don't get hit with one huge bill.
I know uniforms are very specific to schools, but can I buy my stethoscope and shoes now? Do schools usually require a certain type of stethoscope or shoes? I tried to call, but I was told there will be an orientation in the summer... But I just cannot wait!!!!

I am currently using a Samsung I330, which is a Palm PDA / Phone through Sprint. Because I'm such an organized freak (see other threads, lol) I can't live without my PDA - and I got sick of packing a cell phone AND PDA everywhere I went. I did have a Handspring Treo til about a year ago - I loved it and may someday go back to it when I upgrade again. My major beef with the Treo was the "flip" cover - but I see that they now have them without that aspect. The I330 (or Treo) is a little bigger than the 'average' PDA, and bigger than the tiny cell phones... but having 2 in 1 is worth it.
