Hi! I too will be attending in the Fall. I chose the clinical site that will include QMC. How about you?

Hey! that's great! I live in Wahiawa so I chose WGH. Have you gotten your scrubs and polo shirt yet?

urijahsmommy, BSN, RN · May 26, 2015

i went to the bookstore to buy scrubs but they didnt have any white ones, so I asked someone about it and they said someone is going to email us to check what sizes we needed....not sure if this person knew what she was talking about though haha!

yeah I got one polo but definitely want to go back and grab another but I didn't see any scrubs. There wasn't anyone there to ask so I was just going to try another day. Michael was saying that it always seems that the bookstore either runs out or gets their shipment late so I tried going already so I won't be one left with out any scrubs. lol I wonder when they are going to be e-mailing us about our supplies, I want to start getting them slowly instead of all at once right before school.

I know I wanted to start getting my supplies a little at a time too. A previous classmate of mine who got into the program last year told me expect to spend about $1000 on supplies. i guess we just gotta keep checking to see if the scrubs come in. For the polos I only saw the green ones...is that the one we need?

iortiz · May 26, 2015

Oh wow! well hopefully soon since I know I can't spend $1000 in a lump sum. yes I believe the green polos are the ones we need. That's what the bookstore told me and the only ones I could find. So I hope so. lol

I'll be checking periodically to see if any scrubs come in, I'll let you know if they do! By the way, my name is Lisa, what is yours?

iortiz · May 27, 2015

Yes, please do and i'll be doing the same! lol My name is Iris!

Just saw that we got our supply list for the Fall. It's definitely a lot of books we will be needing.

urijahsmommy, BSN, RN · May 28, 2015

Yes! It sure is! My friend mentioned that textbooks alone will run us about $800, but we'll use those books from 1st to about 5th semester. Do you have any experience in the medical field?

iortiz · May 28, 2015

well I guess that is good so we won't be buying this many each semester. No, no experience. I only know people who are in the medical field and well of course dealt with many people in it as well. Do you?
