I know I looked at the book list and crindged they will sent a letter in August stating what team your on because I asked (**** name redacted per site ToS/privacy ***). and she said people can request but she looks at the files and places people where she wants. I HA registration this morning and it was entertaining with kids making lots of noise. Butbit was informative.

@Kmwk that's funny you said that about the people talking side at the registration she did say the morning group was very talkative and we were too quite. But yes that book list is a lot. And now that amazon charges tax the cost is the same. Guess I will buy some now and some later.

@BlessedSPNB , I did ask for group A but just because the order of their syllabus. I really don't mind which class I get as long as I have a seat. And I'm going to get the books required for September and take my time ordering the specialty books needed for December and March. I'm also waiting to order my white clinical uniform it sucks that Life uniform store on Hooper is closed and the closest is in Eatontown, but luckily I picked up most of the uniform now I need just the small stuff like the namebadge and patches.

@kmwk I was planning in going to the life uniform out in toms river after the registration And she said it closed. But lucky for me I live in Monmouth county around the corner from the life in Eatontown. I plan to get the first set of books now and the rest like you in December. It seems to me we have to wear specific uniforms landau. Is that not correct? Or Can we wear any long as the color match? As for me it doesn't matters what class I get I don't know no one there I will just be meeting everyone for the first time.

The lab royal blue scrubs don't have to be a specific brand as long as the color is royal blue but the hospital clinical white uniform has to be ordered from one of the uniform stores. I got my lab royal blue scrubs from walmart for 5.96 each piece and the school said it was ok.

If youre not grossed out to wear used scrubs (you can obviously wash them!) The LPN office has or will have white clinical scrubs in different sizes from past students. A lot of us donated ours to the school so new students can use them. I was broke, so I ran to the office to find my size. lol Nothing a little detergent cant clean

Who do you have to speak to in order to borrow them?

Maybe call the secretary in the office she can probably direct us...

When you go to ocvts.org and go to contact, you will see LPN Nursing and their phone number. That's Their direct number with the extension for the LPN office. There may not be much there now because we just got out last week, but by November (when you need them) there will be a bunch, I'm sure

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if someone could do me a huge favor. My folder didn't come with the yellow medical terminology paper. I meant to ask for one at the end of registration and completely forgot. Would anyone be able to scan it and email it to me?
