Seattle Central Community College Fall 2014

U.S.A. Washington

I am really hoping that a current or former student can shed some light on SCCC nursing program.

Some specific things I am hoping to find out

Instructor reviews.. did you feel that the majority of the instructors taught fairly well and were supportive of the students.

Environment- Did you feel it was a good environment and you had the tools and resources you needed to get things done in lab and skills check offs

Administration- there seems to be a general consensus that SCCC has a horrible reputation in their normal college administration and administrative functions such as transcripts, records, cashier, losing important items and financial aid. Does this carryover into the program or do they seem to be organized and efficient?

Material: Did you find that the material prepared you well for graduation and NCLEX?

Student Nurses Organization: Is there one? Is there any kind of community health or outreach that the students participate in?

Thank you so much if anyone can answer some or all of these. I am trying to decide if I apply here for Fall or go somewhere else.

The information session was helpful, but there are still some unanswered questions and I would love to get an actual student or graduates perception of these things.

Kate,

They changed the scrubs for this cohort - it's now Cherokee brand, color is royal blue, and for some reason has to be bought through Life Uniforms. They had some reps that sold them at the orientation and actually one top ad bottom together were around $50 if I remember correctly so no too bad :)

Uhh I am feeling kinda anxious for the school to start. This might sound a bit ridiculous but does anybody know what we should bring to the first day of class? Do we really need to bring all of those books with us?

Anyways I will see you on Monday!

Happy first day of nursing program to all :)

Yep I "finally" got a response from Kim about what I needed to buy. I ordered a couple similar online and the "correct" pair from Life. They must have swapped to a cheaper brand, because you're right...$50 isn't so bad. I'm bringing the book Kim had us read, as well as my study guide for it and med dictionary; I mean, there's no way we can cram all of those books in our backpacks! :)

@cupkate255 I am looking into applying for SCC and I see you got accepted. Can you let me know more about the program and what your gpa etc was...I am trying to figure out if I even have a chance in making it in. Thanks!
