Hi, would anyone like to start a thread on getting into Motlow State's Nursing program this fall? I wish everyone luck.

So excited!!

Me toooooooo! Did you get any email today about it? I have this fee that they mixed me up w/ someone else and I'm not supposed to have been accepted. Paranoid...

[bdb1550]

No I never got an email about where so I called. Its in the marcum technology building room 105.

[Jeepchick97]

Awesome! Thanks! Too bad we won't be at the same campus. I too A&P I & II at the McMinnville campus, and I thought I was nice.

[bdb1550]

No problem. Yes it's small, but a very nice building since they added on to it.

I wish more people from this fall's Motlow program were on here.

[bdb1550]

Me too! Unfortunately a lot of people aren't as technology savvy as we are. I always research things and find out more about them if I can and that's what led me to this website. It's nice to have a supportive community and people to talk to that are going through the same experiences you are.

[Jeepchick97]

Oh, I totally agree! I research everything, too! I don't want to go into something uninformed or unprepared.

I think some people were scared to death yesterday. Wonder how many go running for the hills after that orientation? Lol. It's going to be hard and I knew it would be but I think some people were in total shock!

There was a lot of info, and lots to get done before Aug 1st! But it should all be okay! I like "kiss your husbands and your babies goodbye because you won't see them for 2 years." Oh goodness! I am still so excited though, I can't wait to get started!

So where were y'all sitting? I was in the front row, center section. I couldn't really tell other people's reactions. You think people were stressing? Yes, that was a lot of info. Honestly, I think if already read about most of it. The only thing that might really throw a link in things, especially if I'm able/have to work part-time, is the fact that we have to drive the night before clinicals to get our assignment. I'm kind of confused about that. I signed up and paid for the CPR class. I'll be glad to get that out if the way. I've already filled out the forms that we were given. I guess I need to get my shot record, and get my physical and shots started. I really don't even know what I need. For me, the most confusing part was the books that we need. I was able to get 2 pairs of scrub pants & I got the kit w/ the stethoscope and the forceps. I think I've got a pretty decent start, but I still need to get two tops, shoes, pay for all books, and of course, wait on the info. about the drug test and background check. What all am I leaving out that's needed ASAP?
