I start nursing school on Aug 16, 2004 and I am exicted but also stressed out. It seems as if things that need to be done before school starts keep popping up on me. I took an American Heart CPR class last summer thinking that the CPR card would be good for two years, but the program I'm in want us to have CPR every year. I didn't know that and the information they sent me doesn't say that taking a CPR class every year was a requirement. The deadline to have a copy of our CPR card in the office is Aug 2. Luckily it wasnt too late to sign up for the class but it cost me $61. ($50 for the class and $11 for the book) The class I took last year was only $40 and they supplied the book for free. I don't understand why they want us to have the class every year when certification is good for two year. I just feel like my program is trying to milk it's students for every single dime. My tution was $590 and my books are gonna be about $600. They haven't disscussed uniforms or anything else we may need this semester. (I'm assuming they will go over all that at orientation on Aug 11 and 12) Thank God I'm still working or else I'd really be looking crazy!!:uhoh21: I'm just terrified something else will come up that I won't be prepared to handle.
Well my question is..Is anyone else going through this? Does your school seem unorganized? Are they giving you the correct information within a timely manner? Anyone else ready to scream!!!:rotfl: It's not even August yet and I'm already stressed out. At this rate I'll have an ulcer by the time I graduate.
