Hello All,
I wanted to start a new thread for everyone who was accepted (and because the other one was getting really long). :) If you could please share some information about yourself and any questions you have about the program, that'd be great!
For Example:
Name: Carolyn
Years at NVCC: 1
Joined the FBook Group: Yes
Track: Traditional
Career Goal: CRNA (Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist)
Planning to Transfer: Yes (Mason, BSN Program)
Classes Completed: SDV 101, BIO 141, 142, 205, CHM 111, CST 229, ITE 115, HLT 141 + AP Credit in BIO, ENG, and PSY.
About me: I know I've always wanted to work in healthcare but when I started volunteering as an EMT, I knew that I wanted to be a nurse. My senior year I applied to UVa and was not accepted and decided to go to NVCC because they have a well spoken about nursing program, and I could work to make money while I was at school. I plan to earn my RN through NVCC, then transfer to Mason and earn my BSN. I'm excited and overwhelmed but I have great confidence that our class will make it through together!
Questions:
- Is anyone else dreading buying the NUR 111 book? It's 520 dollars....
- Does anyone living near campus need a roommate/also looking to move closer to Springfield for the year? The drive for me is 70+ minutes.
- Do we need to buy our own scrubs? Any limitations on colors/prints/style? What color do our shoes have to be?
Can't wait to meet you all!
