Forsyth/Guilford Tech Spring 2012

[leighann88]

Anyone applying for Spring 2012 Gtech or Ftech adn program? The deadlines are fast approaching and I would like to compare points etc since this is the first semester to enter using the TEAS V. I have around 150 points at Ftch...anyone applying now have something similar? More? Less? My nerves are about to get the best of me if the deadline doesn't roll around soon!!

Thanks MandaTaye! It's nice to hear from people that have done or are going thru the program. I agree that you can do whatever you're willing to do...just gotta stick with it & try to start off with good grades...We will definitely make sacrifices but it'll be worth it in the end. Spending time studying instead of spending time with my 2 young kids will be the hardest thing for me. I know that going back to school is only going to better their future though...little sacrifice now will help them out (all of us) later. Thanks for the info...hope I draw a good number today! Happy Orientation day to the FTCC folks!! See ya at 2 :)

Hey cdkjasso and Kay51... How was orientation?

[cdkjasso]

It went well...the 3 of us that are on this forum got into the same section together so that was nice! They actually gave us an opportunity to switch sections with each other if we wanted which shocked me. I think there were 3 numbers left which means 3 people didn't show up. We go back Jan. 4 for another orientation before class starts. When do you go for GTCC?

That's great!! Our orientation is Dec 7. I can't wait. We have to turn in all of our paper work by that date. They'll do our measurments and all then.

What color are your uniforms? Did they tell you what type of supplies you will need?

[cdkjasso]

They did give us a list of supplies we will need: books, lab kit, uniforms which are white tops, blue bottoms (thank God they aren't white pants anymore!) and we got our Fall schedule. That was about all last night. We got out an hour early (only there for 2 hours :))

I have an FTCC ADN uniform I used earlier this year but am now out of the program so I'm selling it for half the price of new if anybody hasn't gotten theirs yet or would like an extra one. Blue pants medium, top and jacket large. Good luck to all the new students.
