Good Morning,

for those of you who are In The program What can we expect from orientation? Is this when our classes will be chosen?

Hi everyone!! I created a facebook page for everyone that got accepted into the program at the northlake campus. The page is called El Centro Fall 2020 Nursing program at Northlake college. I made this so we can already start getting prepared for the semester!

What's the link to the group please

Here it is

So, I just declined my spot this morning for North Lake. Hardest decision ever to make, but only one school can have me. I hope that this will help one lucky person to get into the program. You guys take care. I will still stay on allnurses to keep everyone updated. I'm not leaving ?

It will be different because it is online. I believe. You don’t get to choose your classes. It’s all chosen for you. They give you information about the program and the expectations etc... when I did it back in November we got lottery numbers and that’s how our clinical sites were chosen.... Luckily I got the clinical site I wanted but it’s first come first serve. Luck of the draw! Not sure how it will be done In Fall semester since orientation is online.

Are we allowed to swap clinical sites if both students agree? Also, any recommendations as to what we need for uniforms? Are white shoes mandatory? I know we have to order atleast one set from that website, but is there anything else we should know?

Some people tried to do that but they didn’t allow it. You get what you get ??‍♀️ Black leather shoes are mandatory. I have 4 sets (long story) but I would buy two sets of scrubs because you will be wearing this everyday on campus. The dean will tell you specifics exactly what she wants you to have. The jacket isn’t required but I think it’s a good thing to have around. It’s pretty thin and light but I like it. You can’t wear it to clinical though.
