Hey Hopeful, what is the Luncheon all about? I am so excited and it is killing me just wondering about how everything is going to take place. I know that we need to "register" for the program in August, what is that like? At what point do we start buying our books, uniforms and all of the "good stuff"? Sorry for all of the questions, it will just give me something to think about between now and October. Talk to you soon!

Questions......

Have any of you completed your background check yet? Just wondering if I should go ahead and do that now. Also what did you do about meeting the instructors? Wondering if we should make individual appts. with each instructor to meet them, or should we just drop by their office during their office hours. I don't know if it should be a formal/informal meeting. What do you think? Things seem a little vague right now.

I have already got my background check and also went this morning to Lab Corp for my drug screen. I have not tried to meet with anyone, but another student that was accepted sent an email to the instructors and got a reply back. They basically are not sure at this point how things will be done, but they think that you will only meet with them if you have questions. Things are not concrete yet with the procedures so I have just been working on the background/drug screen and my physical/immunizations. It is very vague and I don't think any of us are quite sure right now.

Thank you, MyDream, for the quick reply. Where did you have to go for the drug screen? Is Lab Corp in Rome?

I haven't done my background screen yet. I will probably do it by next week. I am working on my immunizations. Is there a deadline for us to have everything completed? Does anyone know what other little things we need to get for school?

When you go online to submit and pay for your background check, within a few days after, they will send you an email with a form for you to print and take with you to Lab Corp. I am guessing that everyone will go to the same Lab Corp location which was in Carrollton. Then again, they may choose one that is closest to you depending upon where you live. I am not sure on that.

I have not heard of any deadline but I am just guessing to have everything done before beginning in October. It will only take a few days for the background check to process so you really have plenty of time. By the way, the background costs $74 (if that was not already told in our paperwork). It includes your drug screen too. As far as anything else, I heard from someone that we will be getting more info on what to have for our first day. We might get that when we enroll in August. I don't know for sure.
