I'm sooo excited everyone! I wish they would send us that email and the rest of the package already!!!!

Congrats to everyone so far!!! I still havent gotten my letter. Yikes! I called today and they said that I should get my by the end of the month which I have no idea what that means since everyone is receiving theirs. Am I alone on getting a letter?

No, 904nnn you are not alone. I still haven't gotten anything either. I mean, I'm pretty sure I didn't get in anyhow. I am still taking 2 prereq's that weren't included in my point total, but I thought "what the heck" and submitted the application anyway. I don't know why we haven't got ours yet when everyone else seems to be getting theirs. I don't know about you, but it's not like I live in an isolated part of Jacksonville, lol.

Just a question but if our uniforms say 'fccj nursing' and the name change goes through in august, does anyone know if we will have to buy uniforms that have 'Florida State College' on them? Or can we wait to buy them?

to those that didn't...don't give up!

i'm game for meeting up.

Do we have to wear uniforms to class everyday or just to clinicals? In the letter it says something about polos and kahki pants and white uniforms?

noeyrn · Mar 26, 2009

I think you wear the polos and kakhi pants to classes and whites to clinicals. Just a guess though.

hey guys! congrats on getting in... im finishing up my first term and couldn't be happier (with it almost being over:rolleyes:) as far as the uniforms go... i think they are starting a policy where the blue shirt and khakis will have to be worn to every class.. pretty stupid in my opinion, but you'll feel that way too as you progress through the program; and you don't need to buy your clincal uniforms right away... you can wait a couple weeks if you're in a cash crunch, because you don't even wear them until the 7th week of class to do your first simulations. Also I would check at orientation to see if they're going to have a uniform give away again. They didn't tell us about the giveaway until about a month in when we had all purchased uniforms but it's another way to save money. Also, be sure to get everything in order before school starts. I don't have a job or kids and thought I'd have all the time in the world to study but things get pretty overwhelming even just with school. Good luck... it really sucks at first but just keep looking for the light at the end of the tunnel... the further I get the bigger the light seems.

Congratulation on your first term :bow: , and please keep us posted, it might keep us out of trouble :up:

Does anyone know what the cut-off is?

jacks2009 · Mar 26, 2009

Has anyone called the office yet to say that you accept the position?

Also, has anyone noticed that the 2nd paragraph states that the paperwork has to be in the office by April 13th at 5pm then below that in the box it says April 14th at 5pm... WHICH IS IT People?!?

Then, it says that we'll get this paperwork by US Mail and Email on the front but via email on the back... I still haven't gotten anything- has anybody else?
