Calling all southwest tn comm. College spring 2012 hopefuls!!!

[SheriWood]

I know it's a bit early, but I intend on applying for the evening/weekends program at SWTCC Spring 2012. I have a gpa of 2.75, 143 on nln, and an A in ap2 and B's in micro and ap1. Is there anyone on here that has been accepted to the program during a spring semester.. heard it's more competitive vs fall sem!!?? What are my chances??? Thanks

After reading all the posts, I feel like I know all you guys. I look forward to meeting you in January. For those of you who got letters, hang in there-if I can make it, anyone can...seriously.

Does anyone know if ALL the phone calls went out last week or will they continue calling more on Monday? I didn't receive a letter yet or a phone call, so I'm assuming I got in the program.. My index score was a 59.11, if I remember correctly. Any comments would be helpful as I have been anxious all weekend after reading all the other posts and hearing about the ones who received and missed calls :-) Hope to see and meet all of you next week when we (I hope) pick up our packets. Thanks!!

[klputman]

Well, no one responded to my post, but I finally DID get the call today (the day before we receive packets - crazy) and I'm in - look forward to meeting everyone tomorrow!

I heard that the calls were still being made today. I guess the good news is that if you haven't recieved a letter you are good to go.

Does anyone know if we have to get our stuff through flag staff or can we get something similar from elsewhere? Don't really like some of the options they have and found similar kits and what not that I like better.

If anybody knows let me know. Thanks!

I was wondering the same thing. I found the same exact nurse kit and other items for cheaper somewhere else. I want to know if we can have a colored stethoscope or do they want us to all be "uniform" and have a basic black one. I saw in the picture of the kit that comes with the BP cuff, bag, and stethoscope, that the stethoscope was a blue color.

Students are required to buy the nursing kit sold at the bookstore and it's mandatory to buy the uniforms from Flagstaff.

They didn't tell us anything about a nursing kit at the bookstore. They just gave us our packets that had an order form from flagstaff for the uniforms on the front and on the back where we order BP cuff, scissors, forceps, stethoscope, etc, etc. Do they tell you about the nursing kit at orientation? How much did yours cost and what all did it come with?
