ORIENTATION what to expect Pitt Community College

Our orientation was 1 full day... It was a couple years ago but we were informed of the expectations of our program, we were put into our clinical teams, met our clinical instructor and our group-mates... we had small group discussions about what to expect from the program and nursing school in general. Kaplan came in and made a presentation. The Dean came in and welcomed us and what her expectations of us were. There is some person that goes over program content and she came in and spoke about her hours and how she can help us... recent grads came in to give their experience and how they made it thorugh. I found it to be more like a pep-rally than anything else and I really wanted out, but I'm also older and have gone the college route before

How do I find "NC Nursing schools" link? Thanks - Cara

sorry...don't know how I posted this twice....

Just found it....

No not yet... I hope to find out something more next week. Our packet has to be in by July 1st. I have completed everything (CPR, background, etc) so I will send it in on Monday. I was told that I had to have it in along with everyone else because if/when my name comes up that if my packet was not submitted by then that they would skip over me. I have had to spend quite a bit of money on immunizations, CPR, chest x-ray, background, drug screen.....you get the picture! lol

Anyways, that is a lot of money to spend if I don't get in....so...you got in at Pitt -right? I am soooo happy for you!!!! That is awesome

I got the call this morning! I'm in! I officially have a permanent seat in the nursing program for this fall. I am sooo excited and nervous!!

Hi @ CaraJ I am currently attending Pitt Community College and I am applying for the Nursing program. I would like to know some exam tips for the first semester.
