  1. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I'm not sure what the Gray's anatomy scrub tops look like, but you will need to purchase tops that have a full front zipper and of course white. The only ones that I have seen are the brand that they sell in the bookstore (Landau) but I'm sure there ...

    I heard them say that at orientation too but the ADN booklet computer requirements say you need one. Maybe we won't use the discs while in class but I'm not sure. Thanks for the answer on the lab uniform.
  3. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I bought mine but haven't opened it yet. Does anyone know what we wear on lab days? The white top or blue polo?
  4. Ask me anything!

    Thank you for the input!! One of our required books is Nursing Care Plans: Diagnoses, Interventions, and Outcomes" by Gulanick and Myers, but they told us we won't need it until March. I bought it already so I am going to start going over it now. I a...
  5. Ask me anything!

    I am starting my nursing classes in January and I am soooo nervous. Do you have any recommendations for supplemental books that helped you? Thank you starting this thread!!!
  6. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I switched the day after orientation.
  7. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I switched too. I don't plan on not going to classes or not going to main campus for the tests but it's nice to have the option in case something happens.

    There is a checklist that you are supposed to sign and turn in with all of the documents. Other than the signed handbook forms, I think you have everything. :)

    Congratulations Currya!!!! :-)
  10. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I pre-ordered mine at the orientation. Maybe that was the only time you could.
  11. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Congratulations ladies!!! I look forward to meeting all of you.
  12. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Check your emails!!! I got accepted.
  13. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I know in the info session they said it was 4 days a week but she couldn't tell us which days. I'm pretty sure clinical days start at 6:30 am and can go until 4:30 pm. Actually trying to find something part time right now. Hopefully I can find someth...

    There are no checks next to mine but my points are there. Are your points there?
  15. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    LOL....I thought I was the only one who felt that way.
  16. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Thanks Robin. I know it is just my nerves getting the better of me today. I will definitely be calling back on Monday if my scores still aren't showing.
  17. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Tlilavois, when did you take your NLN?
  18. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Ugh! I just called and got the same reaction from them KimKofke. "We have all of scores but they must be manually entered. It can take six to eight weeks." I know they are getting tons of phone calls from us over stressed applicants but it seems some...
  19. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I only asked because I saw on the Fall 2013 thread that some people had to retake it even though their certification was still good for awhile. They said the reason was that the nursing dept. didn't want to keep track of renewals. As much as I really...
  20. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I had few questions so I called the nursing dept. I was told not to take the CPR course until I was accepted because you have a window of time to take it so that it is valid for entire time you are in the program.
  21. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Please call me Brooke :) Are you going to the morning session or afternoon?
  22. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I plan on doing the CPR class on the 21st of September @ the main campus.
  23. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    I was stressing hard before I took it. It was quite a relief to have it over with. We are all definitely in the same boat. Good luck tomorrow!!!
  24. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Scored a 144, so my total is a 176. The waiting is going to torture me. The lowest score that got in last time (without being an alternate) was a 156. It doesn't seem like we will have to wait 6 weeks. I looked at the Spring 2013 thread and they foun...
  25. IRSC spring 2014 hopefuls!

    Thanks for the info LMB. I am feeling pretty confident in my score but you never know for sure. Did you do the titers or did you just go ahead and get the shots? I know I've had the shots but of course I have no way to prove it.
