CALHOUN CC

Hello! I'm applying for Fall 2014! Woohoo one year into this journey and it's here! Anyways, what is the price of our program? Per semester?

Clinical cost? Tuition? How much are the scrubs, and accessories? I have about 2K saved for school. It won't be enough, but I'll take out FASFA loans for tuition and clinicals. Are there any scholarships I can look into? My GPA is fairly high. Thank you in advance!

I'm applying for fall and would like to know the same. Good luck

Are you currently in the program? I haven't heard of an intro meeting and I always look on the nursing page, unless it's that "Are you ready for nursing school" link.

scross0613 is talking about orientation. It's usually in July. It's where they tell you everything to you need to get, etc. There's another thread where a nice current student gave us a lot of information. https://allnurses.com/alabama-nursing/calhoun-cc-fall-900016.html
