Anyone starting the September 2015 LPN program at OCVTS-Toms River? So far I passed the TEAS, finished criminal background check, along w/ drug screening. Met up w/ Financial Aid, all set. Now have my interview April 13th! I am psyched. Was looking for people who are in the same boat as me, and possibly future study buddies :)

@PennyMT yes I was in the program and failed out last year I miss it so much but I made it far so I know exactly what to expect. I am so excited to get back and make it through. Can't wait to meet you. I just did my back ground check and doing the drug test tomorrow in Brick. We got this

GLegrandesGirl, Well I am glad you made it back to the program :). I can't wait to start! How was it? When do we usually start getting scrubs? Do I purchase now? I am on a budget, so I am trying to buy stuff a little at a time.

You will need the blues by the 18th of September for lab the whites you don't need until clinical orientation in Nov sometime. I understand about a budget it's tough because you have to study so working full time won't work. So do what you can now if possible

GLegrandesGirl, Thanks for the info! So I got time, that makes me feel a lot better. Lol. Heard scrubs cost a lot, but also heard that the office has some old scrubs from previous students we can use... if we aren't grossed out. Lol. I might get my own, but not sure, depends on my finances at the time. I'm not working FT, and won't be. But I will be working a PT job, which I am trying to do now. I heard it's hard working and going to Nursing school, and I am the type of person that takes the extra hours to study b/c I have to... so working would be a hard option right now. Come on 5 months!!! I am ready for this...
