Thanks, and yes... see you all Monday!!

I almost forgot to sew a CCC Nursing patch onto my lab coat... does it go on the left sleeve as well?

Thanks for the info... I'm going to look into that as well!

Welcome to the group. Yes, I def think the majority of us are nervous, lol, but also pretty excited! I am very much looking forward to Monday... which, BTW, is the day most ppl will speak with their mentors for the first time. Can't believe it's only...

You can get it right off the shelf if there is plenty available, but some of the popular brands can run low. I am waiting on an order myself.

I submitted my last document on July 1st and received my letter on Friday... not sure if that helps with the timeframe. And as far as scrubs go, I was told there was one near the intersection of the main campus that gives a discount to CCC students, ...

I was having a little difficulty before, but yesterday I received my award letter and have everything cleared up now... very relieved!

It will also give you a chance to find the place that we will be meeting at for our first day... good luck w/ the move!

I've taken all if my prerequisites at CCC, so I know that the new student orientation is geared towards common basics, like financial aid, testing, and advisor information. It gives a good start for the main aspects, but they generally send you to Ha...

simplesmile, I just picked up my uniform a few days ago from NW Scrubs in NE Portland. They have a nice variety, although lab coats are generally limited in all stores. Closest to Milwaukie is Life Uniform, but they are in the middle of a transition...

I thought I had recognized one of the members of the group & requested to join, but I might have it all wrong... FB on my phone doesn't show me any details on the location & so I just assumed. I hope that there is one set up though... it's a ...

I just checked a minute ago & requested to join "CCC Nursing Class of 2015." Looks like there's already 48 members... better late than never, right?

It's been a while since I hit this thread... but I just wanted to give a big CONGRATS to all who have recently been accepted into Nursing school!!! :)

Does anyone know if there is a Facebook page set for Clackamas nursing students yet?

I haven't gotten my scrubs yet but will most likely buy them at Life Uniform in Clackamas. I like the Grey's Anatomy brand~ good fit & pretty comfortable! So, how is everyone coming along with all their requirements? I still have quite a bit to c...

MommaTy, I sent you a FB request to join the group if it has started! :)

As far as schedules go, my first term is Nursing Foundations theory & clinical (with a focus on community health) MTWF, and Microbiology. My Micro course is online in order to avoid any schedule conflict this fall (yup... a toughy). Oh, & h...

Thanks Erin... will definitely make sure to check it out!

I agree with prfoodie, Mt Scott is a nice area to live, as well as Happy Valley. I live in the Oak Grove/Milwaukie area (decent w/ a commute of approx 15 min). I would avoid the immediate areas surrounding SE 82nd however, as the crime rate is seemi...

Does anyone know which tablet/laptop would be best for the program (I will be purchasing a combo package- ebook/textbook)??

Still very excited that we are officially beginning our journey... and again, congrats to everyone!!

Does anyone who has taken BI-234 at Clackamas still have a syllabus or know which chapters are to be covered for the course? My fall term instructor is TBD and so I can't email them yet (online course). I will be focusing on my first term of Nursin...

simplesmile, CONGRATS!! :)

Had my orientation today, yay!! Very informative, but overwhelming as ever. Thought I would be taking a break this summer, but it looks like I'm going to have to take Microbiology on top of everything else. Program starts Sept 30th... can't wait!

Yeah, it was pretty nerve-wracking, but very informative! I especially enjoyed speaking with the 2nd yr students afterward. My concern is BI234 though... I was one of those who raised my hand for not having completed the course (eek). Oh, & when ...
