   No, they have a vendor you order through, they have to have the embroidery, they have to be the right green, and I think the brand is Grey’s Anatomy (I think some people find extra pants on amazon) but you’ll definitely at least have to get the tops ...

   You wear scrubs to clinical and lab with black or white shoes (mainly black, mainly white, it’s fine if there are patterns or logos). You wear business casual plus a sac State embroidered lab coat to your clinical prep days (which is at the hospital)...

   You’re welcome. And no, there’s no enrollment fee (like when you say you intend to enroll, you don’t pay anything for them to hold your spot). most fees that I can think of are bundled into your tuition. (Health center, etc) New student orientation ...

   Pharmacology is integrated into the nursing courses, so you’ll learn the relevant drugs alongside the pathophysio in each nursing course. That two unit pharmacology course is an elective but not one you specifically have to take in the program.

   We're hopping along, but all plans are still conditional for next semester as well. I really all depends on when the shelter in place is lifted and whether or not we'll be allowed on campus in the Fall. Basically, nothing new! I have hopes though, if...

    Etak replied to Etak's topic in General Students

    I feel ridiculous even saying this, but yes and I haven't even cracked it open. We had to buy a required book bundle, I opened it and took out the 4 books with required reading so far and haven't even looked at the rest yet until just now. Thank you....
