FCCJ Fall '09???

timbletack · Jul 29, 2009

To everyone who has not received a letter yet, i still have not either, but I went to the Nursing office at the north campus yesterday and asked them about it. Everyone should receive a letter by the end of the week (all of the letters have been mailed by now) and with concerns about confirming your spot, I was told that the FCCJ nursing office will be calling you if you have not confirmed your spot and you have been accepted to the program. i'm pretty sure they understand that the mail is not always reliable and aren't just going to hand your spot off tomorrow. So I hope this helps with the stress, even a little.

The place you pick up your skills kit has some inexpensive BP cuffs. You *need* to have your own. You will use it in class and you have a sheet to fill out that shows you did 50 BPs on friends, family and neighbors...plus, for OUR clinical instructor, she insists that we have our own BP cuff there and to use it instead of the automated BP machine.

Sorry if my post was not up-to-date. I bought one, used it for my 25 BP on ppl and then it now sits on a shelf. That was a waste of money to me. But if you need it more now, then buy one by all means.

Well hgerun5, I have 188 not so high... 2 of my classes didn't go into the point scale, because I just took them this summer... So, I am praying that the cutoff is below 188.. What is yours?

wither 188 or 193 depends if my english got there??

Not a problem misswhitney! You know how clinicals can be when your instructor looks at a student like they have lost their mind if they don't have what the teacher expected them to have. The first week, none of us brought our BP cuffs. She looked absolutely shocked and told us we better have it with us after that!

I'm unfortunately the first to post the point range ;(

The cutoff was 190.72. Good Luck to all that have to apply for the Spring :)

BTW, There were 568 students that applied to the program this fall (wowzers!!!)

Twins1995 and hgerun5, what county are you both in? I didn't get my letter today again either. Wow, that is a lot of people applying and now I am almost sure my points and me being in Clay may mean I am not in.

I have not received a letter either. I live in St. Johns County though and my points are above the cutoff. Hopefully tommorow will be the day! :banghead:

I left a message the other day to accept my seat. Does anyone know if I had to do it today or just by today?

crtm0924,

A message is enough, I called Monday and left a message, and called again yesterday to be sure. I actually got a live person yesterday and they already had me marked down as accepting my place.
