GTCC ADN Spring 2015

Published

I know it's early but I just couldn't wait any longer for a thread to be started. I took my TEAS test today and passed!!! I've met with the advisor to do my ranking...so I guess it's 3 months of anticipation and hoping I get it. With the new changes in the criteria for the program I can only imagine more people will apply making it more competitive for a seat in the program. Anybody else planning to apply for Spring?

I went to turn in my forms but Lori wasn't in her office. In fact nobody was there. Does anybody know their office hours? I really wanted to turn in my forms before the 30th

Me too but I anticipated they may not be in office when I had the time to drop it off. You can try emailing them. I think I will just hang on to mine until orientation.

My boyfriend and his brother both started in the Nursing program this semester and they said that uniforms for them were about $200 and with the extras (stethoscope, pen light, tape scissors, BP cuff) it was about $250-$300. They were the ones that recommended buying JUST your scrubs at orientation and finding all your other supplies at a scrub store or somewhere else, because they (and other classmates) weren't happy with the quality of things for the amount of money they paid.

If I'm remembering correctly they bought their text book bundle (about $2000) at another time, but they had the whole summer between orientation and classes starting so things might be different for us since we don't have as much time. The good thing about the books is that you only have to buy them this semester and then like 2 extra your last semester so you won't be spending $2000 each semester.

I know things change with each semester, but this is just an idea of how things were last semester!

Best of luck to everyone this upcoming year!!!

I emailed the woman already and she said that you can drop it by her office at the front desk because that is where her administrator sits and she would handle it from there.
