Who else is going to be at orientation on Friday? Looking for future classmates!! I'm hoping the option to swich from traditional to online after first quarter is still available; they have already gotten rid of the part-time option which I was looking into (no way to work less than 40 hours/week).
Also, has anyone else had issues with the background check? I went in the evening and met with different officers to get finger printed and none of them could get any good prints on me. I then met with Frank, the guy in the charge, who had no luck either. We tried tons of different lotions (including Corn Huskers), we tried making my fingers warmer, we tried wet, we tried dry, we tried cleaning my hands.... no luck with either scanner. We then did the manual prints on ink and mailed them to the BCI office but they rejected those too saying they weren't good enough. I just had it done for a second time and the BCI office is saying 1-2 months to get those back. If that isn't good still, they will let CSCC run it with just my name and SSN. I'm worried it won't all be said and done by the time clinicals start and CSCC said I can't start clinicals without it being completed. Would hate to lose out on nursing school over something I had no control over!
That aside, I'm super excited. My record is complete minus the background check. Anyone notice there is one clinical with 8 seats available on Monday evenings (3p-7p) first quarter? I'm thrilled - that will mean I won't have to be at work til midnight every week!!
