I am starting fundamentals this semester (done with all pre-reqs YAYY!), and tomorrow is our orientation day. I'm a nervous wreck to say the absolute least. Anyone going into orientation soon, or has already went? What was your experience if so?

My orientation day is on the 17th :) Good luck, that's so exciting.
Associates degree. Omg it was hectic. I start on the 9th. Good luck.
How was it? If you don't mind me asking
No problem. We basically went over policies and procedures and also spoke about the clinical portion of the semester. We didn't talk about any of the other nursing semesters. Every program is different though.
True! Every program is different, are u excited to start Monday ?
Yes! Nervous though. YouTube has been my best friend. Lol.
Omg! Yes that's how I feel , I been watching YouTube videos too lol

my orientation was december 8th. i start january 17th. we were instantly given 8 pages of medical terms to remember, med math homework that we were expected to know and our first weeks syllabus for fundamentals which consist of a lot of reading. orientation also went over rules and regulations and we were introduced to the faculty of the department.
