NCC nursing program

Published

Has anyone been accepted to Ncc's nursing program. If so, how hard is it, and are you able to work while in the program?

They assigned us a CRN on May 20th, that day we were able to either go to registrar to register, or go online and register ourselves

Yea there was an issue and an important paper was missing from my folder we received I fixed the issue though.

Does anyone know if we are going to wear the uniform every single day or just for clinical? I'm sure we're going to need more than one uniform if we have to wear it all week.

Also, ouch with these books! Why so many??? Are these for just 101 or are we going to be able to use them for future semesters?

Just during clinicals

It's just for clinicals and I haven't checked the prices on the books yet but they said only get the required texts not the suggested stuff unless you have money to splurge. Hopefully we'll be able to use them in the spring too.. did you check out the prices at the book store or online?

I checked the prices both online and bookstore. Problem is they want two of the books to include access codes so we're not going to be able to buy used books. I went looking to get the access codes only, just to see if it would be cheaper but they're not. They're about $80. The ATI books are $285 for all and the other three that we need probably are about another $250 to $300.

Oh ok, thanks for the tip, I didn't think it would be that price but I'll start saving for them. According to the packet they gave us they want us to read ch. 10 from one book and ch 16 from another by orientation! So guess I'll be saving till August for books and scrubs

That's insane but yes we better start reading.

Me and Daisy just did the CPR class on the 12th and they said to NOT buy the ATI till class because they may have voted that out for this year

The 3 textbooks we need don't have anything to do with the ATI program though right ? like we still need 1) Kozier & Erb's 2) Medical- surgical nursing & 3) Handbook of nursing diagnosis right ??
