U.S.A. Pennsylvania

Hi all, I'm new to this site (just joined today). But I've been lurking for a few weeks. I'm applying for the Aria Health SON and would love to meet others who are applying for the September 2012 academic year.

Hello again Does anyone know what Julie in admissions email address is? I've been trying to call to to no avail.. I tried using the one on the website but it was sent back to me saying that there was no such address. Thanks I really appreciate it.. And also I applied for the Jan 2013 start and I know that deadline is aug 1st.. I was wondering how long after deadline it typically takes for response of you are accepted or not.. And do they post it on the student log in?Thank youHeather

For the medical records...I had to get titers so I had individual lab reports for each vaccination. But if your dr filled out the packet just scan it and make sure you upload the page for every necessary vaccination. You will get a copy of your clearances. I got a copy of them plus I bought the background badge from the website in case I misplace my original forms. And yes the drug test results get sent directly to the school.

@Heather I'll send you a PM

oh yeah....please dont wait until the last minute to upload or fax your documents, because the website does reject them sometimes.

A few more questions.... Since the flu vaccine is seasonal...do we still need to get that before June 30th also, or do we get that before we start in the Fall? I have also tried contacting Julie regarding this, and I think with the move of the campus, the phones are still being setup. I can't imagine getting a flu vaccine in Spring/Summer. I have never actually had a flu vaccine. Just wondering if anyone knows the answer...thanks so much!

Thank you.. I got your message.. I really appreciate it.. and thanks for the info.. I really hope that I get in.. I wish I was starting in September but I have to still do A&PII and thats it. I have been reading all the posts and you all must be so excited. I hope to be joining you all in January.. I hope to stay in touch to see how you guys like the program and how you all are doing.. :)

Thanks,

Heather

Hmmm...I'm not really sure about the flu vaccine either. Last November was my first shot (I didn't like it at all :-( ). But I thought they aren't available until around September.

Yea I thought that flu shots weren't around til around that time either....hmm...I am nervous to get one bc I know I will probably get some crazy side effects since I never had that vaccine before :( I wish we could get ahold of the admission office to ask them. Anyone able to get in touch with Julie?

Nope...I called twice and left an email. I wanted to check if I had to take the drug test again. Oh well that was probably $30 down the drain :-(. Last year was my first flu shot, I only had a slight fevr and aches. But then again my dr's nurses gave me a flu shot, 2nd step tb test, tetnus, polio booster and hep b shot all on the same day (to save me so many trips back and forth), so it could've been the combonation.

Hey girls! I havent been able to get in contact with Julie either. I've tried calling a few times, and emailing even more. I guess the move is making it difficult for her to respond to us.

Has anyone set their date for the CPR training yet? I set mine at the hospital for July 27th at the Torresdale campus.

I also tried logging onto the certified background website and it has 3 different options of packages to choose...? I emailed the address given to us in our packet to ask questions regarding setting up an account, but they emailed back saying they don't have enough of my info. haha oh boy...and so the frustrations begin lol. If anyone set up your account with the certifiedbackground please let me know what you did to initiate your account.

Thanks,

Kristin

Ayanna, thank you for your input on the flu vaccines...I feel better going into that now :)
