Anyone going to Modesto Junior College?

[dvas00]

I'm just curious! I'm just starting (at the ripe 'ol age of 35, LOL!) looking into a career in nursing. I've worked in hospitals and clinics doing medical transcription for years and years, and way back when used to be a pre-physical therapy major (I've taken chemistry, anatomy, biology...don't know if they would count, as it's been several years). I would be attending MJC for pre-reqs and (fiingers crossed) the nursing program eventually and I would really love to have a student's view, how difficult it is to get into the program, any general advice, etc.

Hey everyone,

I just asked allied health about the uniforms because it does not say anything in our packet about dove apparel. They said they switched to wilsons uniforms on mchenry and they are $40 for the shirt, 24 for the pants, and $5 for the patch and wilson's said they wont be ready until the end of January.

[apoppyfield, BSN, RN]

Great.. just one more thing to stress me out today. I already bought my uniforms from Dove. I can't even bear to call the office.
