OSU OKC Spring 2014

Published

I wanted to start this thread for all of the OSU OKC Spring 2014 applicants. I turned in my application yesterday and I can not wait for letters to go out! I am new to allnurses (but not to OSU OKC) and was hoping to share some of my excitement and anticipation with some other OSU OKC Spring 2014 hopefuls!

Hi everyone,

I also bought my stethoscope from Medisave, although in a different color. I think it was a bit cheaper on Amazon, but I liked that Medisave will do free engraving; I had my initials put on it.

I was wondering if anyone knew about the sizing of the scrubs. Are they unisex (I hope not)? I'm thinking about ordering a couple of sizes, just in case. Also, do we need just one pair to start with?

I've gotten a few of the books already. The Fundamentals of Nursing book is big and heavy. I'm thinking I may need to invest in one of those rolling backpacks. I've seen nursing students use them at school, and now I know why.

Does anybody know if there's a way to be notified when this thread is updated? Sorry if it's obvious and I'm just missing it.

Thanks!

Hey, I got my books too but I got all of the required books together in a box and the box comes with digital copies for your computer. I went to the osu okc bookstore and they let you try on the scrubs... I just tried on the top and jacket for sizing. I think the scrub tops run a little small but everything else is true to size.

I just check this feed every now and then to see if anything is new.

I'm finishing my 2nd semester in nursing at OSU-OKC and I can give you a little "inside baseball" about the scrubs situation. The pants are inconsequential so long as they are black, as mentioned before, but the scrub tops must come from the book store. I was as disappointed by this as the next person. The scrub top color is exclusively licensed by the NCAA and the scrub top also has patches/embroidery above the left breast pocket and on the back just below the collar in addition to the patches that you must purchase and sew/have sewn on. Hope this helps and good luck!

Is the box that comes with all the books and digital copies from the bookstore? Will the digital copies work on iPad?

Yes, I got it from the bookstore and I attached a picture of the e books folder and it has a computer, phone and iPad on the cover so it should work. I haven't tried it yet. Also a great thing about this is at the end of the semester you can sell back the hard copy books but keep the e book version. The guy also said if they plan on using a newer or different book then one that was on the box, I can bring that book back and trade it for the correct one but he said they won't change the books.

Did it save you any $ getting the box ?

It was a little over $600 and he said it would cost the same buying them by their self but you get e books with all of them this way. It would be about half the price if you just buy the e books but I think I would need a hard copy. I think its the same price because I'm sure some of the books come with the e book automatically but I'm not for sure. Its also convenient.

I attached a picture with what was inside and you keep the online books forever.

I think I had to buy one book separate but I included that on the price.
