   @Tigers27 The store I got my shoes from is called Design Resources on Essen. They had a good selection. I got the email with the handbook on 8/5. I would check to make sure they have the right email address for you.

   $287 yikes! I've gotten all my books but the Fundamentals bundle. I think I'm just going to wait to see what they say about it on Friday. I got my shoes from the uniform/nursing supply shop on Essen Ln. I told them I wanted the cheapest pair of all ...

   pbadger replied to FlyaboveLPN's topic in Louisiana

   I agree. I heard from one of the professors that this year had the lowest amount of applicants since they started. They are very clear that they use a point-based ranking system. I even managed to peek at the ranked list when I went down there two we...

   The watch is probably like the khakis and shoes- we need it but a lot of people probably already have one so they're not too strict on forcing us to prove proof of purchase. At least that's how it sounds to me. I'll probably pick up a cheap one event...

   I got the polo at Uniforms by Bayou and it was $19-something + $5-something for monogramming (which is the BRCC nursing discount price). The lab coat was the same exact price.

   Correction on the Health Requirements!! BRG Family Health Center: the $199 actually only covers the physical and titers. Vaccines are additional charges (Varicella=$98, HepB=96, MMR=53, CBC=no charge, HIV Test=$58.50) Capitol City Family Health Cent...

    I thought I'd add more tips too for those just starting on the packet: Fingerprinting: As others have said, bring a $10 money order or cashier's check to Louisiana State Police (7901 Independence Blvd). They close at 4:00pm, and say not to arrive af...
