FCCJ Summer 2009, anyone?

Published

Well, it's never too soon to start thinking about this. Anyone else thinking of applying for Summer 2009?

Oh... and by the way... you don't HAVE to have the cardiology III stethoscope... I'm one of the few who got it and I almost wish I hadn't. It is VERY sensitive and you have to get use to using it... it is good, but I'm starting to learn that there are even a lot of doctors who don't use it... mainly cardiology docs/rns use it. Just don't get a bottom-line stethoscope... mid-range price will be fine. And be careful with your uniforms from Meridy's... they run BIG.

I already checked with Things Remembered they wont do it ...or at least the one at Regency wont....said the surface isnt big enough for them

NJFek, thanks for the advice and encouragement! I am so excited to be going to orientation on Thurs. In fact, I'm just so darn excited to be in the program, PERIOD! My life long dream is finally becoming a reality. Wish my mom was still around to see me now...she would be so proud.

Does anyone know if when we sign up for a certain session, are the clinicals always on the same day? Ex, if for term 1 our clincials are on Friday, will it be on Friday for T2-4?

Your schedule changes from each semester. Like I went on Thursdays for Term I for clinicals and next semester (Term IV) I am going to be going on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Just wondering.... is anyone here planning to get together after the orientation for appetizers or drinks or what ever??? I know it was discussed slightly but didnt seem to get a whole lot of feed back.

I have no problem getting together with everyone. I don't know the north side very well so someone from that side of town may have to make a suggestion. :D

Hello everyone! I am a first time user. I know I am not on the right post and am sure this question has been asked many times but here it goes does anyone know the price and length of fccj RN program. I am hoping to apply for the spring 2010 class. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

The nursing dept handed out an estimate based on 06 tuition ($66.40/cr) and then prices of uniforms and equipment.....at $7069 for pre-reqs, 4 semesters NS and other charges. Prices have gone up. Tuition is now $74.20. Skills kit is $85 not $72. If you use an average of 11% increase, you would have a total of $7846. The school's estimate did NOT include the charges for the FBI and background checks, physical, shots, titers, etc.

If you prepare for $9K, you should have more than enough, I would suspect.... Hope that helps. :D

Hey! Did anyone check their FCCJ email today? I got a notification that my instructor enrolled me on evolve. I was like....HUH? Sure enough, there is Pharmacology (Stacy Burns) and Exploring Medical Language (Emily Kuschnereit)! WOW! Guess they are on the ball after all!

Man! This is getting REAL! :yeah:

yah, I got that email too
