CCAC 2014 nursing books

Published

Hey all CCAC nursing students...starting my first semester at the Allegheny campus on Monday, the 13th...I am looking at the book list they have us when we signed up for classes and am confused as what books we NEED. If you sign into the bookstore, the books listed as required are different then what is on the sheet. For example the med/surg book is listed for 437.69 as required, and on the sheet it had a different ISBN and is a totally different book...do we need both books? Also they have listed Jarvis-assessment (that's all it says) on this sheet...anyone know the ISBN for this book? If anyone can please help with a book list and/or ISBN that would be great as I see many of these books are back ordered. Thanks in advance!!

Hello & welcome to CCAC Allegheny SON!

The $467.00 is a package of books. I recommend buying all the books on the list. They'll last you the entire program (but you will need more books in your 3rd semester).

I am entering my 3rd semester and will be at your orientation on Friday to answer any questions you may have about the program. My name is Jamie & I am my class's secretary.

I look forward to seeing you on Friday!

I apologize, they gave us the wrong info regarding 110 orientation. I will not be there today (Thursday).

I wish you the best of luck on this new journey! If you have any questions, feel free to post here or PM me :)

I am also having a similar problem i did find two of the books on amazon for the nur110 class that we are using on amazon for dirt cheap some books I would like to find the digital copies for my tablet If you need any help let me know. This is also my first term in the nursing program I was thinking about making a facebook page which is alittle more acessable for our class let me know if you would be interested in join. It would be a good way for us students to work together and establish study groups techniques ect....

A Facebook group is a fantastic idea! My class has one as well and it's been very helpful!

I agree...that's a great idea!

Quick question, I'm at allegheny campus, 1st semester nursing...they said at orientation that you can transfer between campuses...I was thinking of transferring to north campus because it is a lot closer to home...since they i my have a fall start and I'll be in my second semester, is that still an option?

Thanks in advance!

You can request a transfer, but you must pass your courses and there has to be an open seat in the class you want to transfer into.

Thanks pghgrl...I understand the grades, I was wondering since north campus only has fall start...I'll be going into second semester...which they will only be starting their first semester nursing students..I was just curious on how that aspect of transferring worked. But I guess I could contact the school, although they are never too helpful. Thanks anyway
