I didn't get to officially meet you guys, but I was sitting directly in front of y'all on the second to last row. It was definitely interesting to say the least and we got a few of our questions answered. I'm definitely ready for class now, so let th...

Oh goodness, it's really becomming real now. Tomorrow is just the tip of the iceberg, we'll soon be on our way to RNs! I hope to see some of you there and though we may not recognize each other, I'll definitely be looking for you guys. Does anyone kn...

I received the same email, called SurScan - they said there was an error with the websites and they had already taken care of it. I went ahead and resent a copy of my receipt to Mrs. S. Sounds to me like they sent that email to everyone. Hopefully t...

Tim - Luckily, I have insurance and injections are covered. I just have to go in and tell them what I need. I have all of the Hep shots, but the nurse told me that most consider having chickenpox and the first varicella shot sufficent, apparently our...

Thanks RED, I appreciate it!

Wow Tim you read the entire handbook? I've glanced over it but haven't had much time to really read it, algebra is taking up most of my time right now. I had to cancel my file check so I didn't get a printout of the schedule for orientation day. My ...

Hey Josh, was wondering when you were gonna pop up again! I'm sure you've been beyond busy lately, but I'm so glad we have someone who's a step ahead of us to give us a little advice. I guess my only question for you right now is this.. In my last A&...

Esme12- I don't believe we were selling or buying books here, we were simply discussing when we can purchase books at our campus bookstore. Also, when RaeAnn04 was edited above, I believe she was replying to me, and my username is mrskennedy. Hope we...

Thanks for all the information guys, I know we all like to be prepared, so this really helps! I already have a binder ready to go and I'm sure I can find my old flash drive. I'm still waiting on Financial Aid to release their refund dates, I'd like t...

makey, I'm definitely counting down! I start College Algebra on the 16th and have already run into conflicts with my class schedule and nursing appointments. My CPR class is on the 18th which is my second day of class, I'm hoping my instructor will ...

Ok guys, she changed my appointment to the 24th instead of the 10th, which is fine with me but could be annoying to someone who had already made plans. I'm sure she changed my date due to the fact that I had mentioned I would not have my CPR complete...

I received one too, for the 10th as well! We still have to go to the main orientation, right?

Hey guys, just to let everyone know, my FA was processed yesterday and approved. Those of you waiting might want to check or e-mail FA if it doesn't show up soon. I keep checking the website to see if they've posted the refund dates, but there's stil...

Mom - Your information is so greatly appreciated. We've been so in the dark about what to expect/buy/not to buy! I think we all just want to be as prepared as possible. Any tips/tricks or just general information you can give us will be so helpful. A...

Wow thanks for the update RaeAnn! I have felt somewhat in the dark and am so ready for orientation in August. I'm definitely holding off to buy books until orientation, but I'm sure those that have already purchased all of the books will need them in...

Hi everyone. Just wanted to give a quick update in regards to Financial Aid. In an e-mail I sent this past Friday, I asked about the refund dates (along with the status of my own Financial Aid.) I recieved a reply today and was told that they have ye...

I agree. And my hard work will continue not just in the program, but after school as well. I only hope to make a difference in the many lives I will encounter throughout my nursing career. Also, I hope to have an instructor as dedicated as you are. ...

I had previously registered for Fall classes before I knew that I had been accepted into the program. I saw that they had dropped those and registered me for nursing classes earlier last week. So, maybe they're getting it done sooner than the 1st. Ha...

RaeAnn04 - I have yet to take CPR but will probably take it in Corsicana late July. I wasn't aware that we were able to take any other CPR class other than what was listed on our attachments. If we can, what are the stipulations to it? I'm pretty sur...

OK guys, upon looking at the attachments, I saw the form for the $160 nursing kit. Does anyone know what comes in this kit and if there is anything besides the scrubs/shoes/books/drug screening etc. that we will need to purchase before class? I know ...

I got the e-mail today (and all 13 attachments!) This makes it so much more real. I had my TB skin test and my last hepatitis shot done today as well. Now, I just have to get my books, scrubs, CPR class, and probably a million other things as well. ...

Timmedico - Thanks so much for replying, it's wonderful seeing how encouraging everyone is. Thanks for letting me know just how much I will have to fill out/read in the e-mail. I've already updated all of my shots and just have to do the TB skin test...

Hello everyone! I've been on allnurses.com since I decided that I was going to apply to nursing school and I've spent the last 30 minutes reading through this particular post (all 27 pages!) It was as if I was reading a mystery novel hoping that you ...
