Thank you-I only qualified for a partial grant ( because of my parents income) but that was only enough to cover tuition and some of the books. I can't afford all the upfront expenses. I thought that...
All my worries and concerns are, officially over, I will not be attending NSCC with y'all...Unfortunately I can not afford it at this time. I a staying positive and plan on saving more money and...
That's great Neekoli- Don't let this thread discourage you. Because this is a new nursing program, things are continually changing and there are a few things that need to be ironed out. From what I...
Thank you harris88- I noticed that they changed the price of our Assessment bundle from $339.00 to $208.75. Someone must have pointed it out between last night and this afternoon. I inquired about the...
I just found the link to view and purchase our books. I am more confused now than ever. The fundamentals of nursing package is not hi-lited as if to say it is not available. I also could not make...
Wait I'm lost! We need 2 books in addition to the ones on our book list? Where did you see that online exactly? I am registered too! Has anyone been fingerprinted yet? I plan on doing mine next week....
To be safe, I am not going to purchase liability or malpractice insurance until after orientation. I can not afford to be buying things I don't need. When I brought my paperwork in on Monday, it...
She didn't mention it to me. We were told at our first meeting everything that we were required to purchase. They wanted us to have the liability insurance and health. The check list online does not...
I received the Kaplan e-mail too. I do not see a problem with the closed back, slip on clog. You may want to check on that. I'm not sure what I will be getting, but I know I wont be paying anything...
I have Health insurance through my dad but I need liability. I don't know who we are suppose to talk to about it. The school nursing department webpage states that liability insurance is $23 a year,...
Harris88- Great site but still a little to high for me, I know I can't afford a Littman. Do you know of any good quality stethoscopes for around $25? Also,you may want to double check before you buy...
Kay2010-Lord no lol-I will be moving to Nashville to stay with family while I'm in school. I think I'm going to wait until Monday to get my uniforms. I have to be at the school to hand my paperwork in...
Thanks for the info Harris88. I am going to call them now and see if I can order them online, opposed to having to drive over 3 hours there just to place an order. Do you have any recommendations on...
Readergirl- I'm not exactly sure. I remember her commenting on how good we all looked( at the first meeting) and in her next breath said something along the lines of " this is exactly how I want you...
I'm only buying two, although one will be plenty for this semester, I would like to have a back up. Kay-2010-yes, we only need them for skills lab and clinical day this semester. On lecture day we are...
While they are both 4 credit courses and equally difficult, it all depends on your professor! My class professor was extremely hard on us and my friend Aced it with a different instructor and hardly...
I think the meeting was a big waste of time. I also didn't like that my question was pretty much dismissed! Kay2010- I am going to assume that you mean HepB titer, because the MMR is not a series of 3...
Your right, that does work:)...I will be ordering my bag Friday. I'm thankful that my mom was able to help me with the background check or I would be in trouble. I'm reading it as you will not be able...
I do have another question though...Clinical's are on the same day as skills lab and from 7-1. If we do clinical's we wont be able to do skills within the time lines provided...We can't be at skills...
I think I got it now... All day Monday is lecture...Next is 3 hours of skills lab on Wed, Thur or Friday, depending upon which group you fall in. That would be 1 and a half days prior to Fall break......
Hmmm good question Jen2881. My notes, from the meeting, state that we will have 2 and half days a week during the first semester. I only see 1 and a half days on the sheet though, so I'm not sure. I...
I went to my primary care provider as well. I already had the MMR and Varicella vaccination, so I only needed the three Hep B and Tb skin test. Maybe you can try your local health department it may be...
