Hey guys :) I just submitted my application as well and was wondering how you uploaded your resumes and letters of rec to your profile. I can't seem to find how. Thanks!

Hi :) no it doesn't matter if it's used, but the course points have to be new because you need the code. If you don't want to buy a hard copy just buy the course points and they come with the ebook. They let you use your laptops in class so you can always do that. I bought both because I need to have a physical copy. But it was more expensive you can't really find good prices on those books.

sorry, I forgot to say the skills book as well. Thats pretty much all we used. The taylor fundamentals & skills book. I would also buy a drug book. It's $50 for the top and $50 for the bottom.

Some people get the letter later than others. & if you got a denial letter I would confirm your points with Jackie. For our group some of the points were not added correctly and they ended up offering them a spot. I spent a little over $1,000 with the uniform, course points, books, and clinical bag. If I had known I would have only bought the Taylor book and the 3 course points because that's really all we used. Congrats guys and good luck! :) Enjoy the last few weeks of break while you have them!

Hi guys, Make sure you confirm your points with JU in the nursing office. They have a lot of applications, you don't want them to miss something. Good luck! :)

We have clinical Tues & Wed from 8-3pm Thursday & Friday lecture from 8-11 and depending on which cohort you choose we have skills lab from either Monday 12:30 - 4:30 or Thurday 12:30 - 4:30 :)

@lunalove i think i'm going to do the same. I don't want to carry them all so ill keep them in my car and only take the fundamentals with me.

I noticed that on the schedule too. it looks like the first week we're there every day until the afternoon? Are you guys taking all of your books?

Thank you! i was afraid i bought one that didn't work.

it was less than the bookstore ones, but i can't remember how much less. I'm thinking of returning it now :/

have any of you that purchased the cursepoints off amazon tried to see if they work? I got mine from amazon too, but after she said sometimes they're expired i don't know if i should open it

Not all the applicants got in i think there were over 400 and 80 got accepted, but everyone who was talking on this post got in! :)

Hi Joanne_michelle they went over how to log in and use the course points, eportfolio, kaplan, and they also went over some study skills for nursing.

on the syllabus it says read chapters 3, 4, 11, and 25 from Taylor et. al. (2015)is that the taylor, lillis, lynn book?

I can't remember where I read it but the Kaplan I think we buy it once we start school. I remember the date being in September. The flyer doesn't say much info but I think they mentioned it at intake. & the sack lunch i think we have to take lol

Thank you so much for all the info FuturePedsRN!

no i don't think so. They said something about having the course points already and the portfolio. but i don't know if we are supposed to bring them along or not.

I saw one on the bookstore website, but I wasn't sure if it's the right one. I'm going to buy it in person too then. Thanks!

have any of you bought the e portfolio? Can we buy it online?

The same thing happened to me I had everything finished on time and when my doctor dates the Tdap it looked like 7-27-15 instead of 7-17-15 and she didn't clear me. I went back to the doctor to rewrite it and it was too late. So i called -------------- yesterday morning and explained and sent him the paper. He cleared me :) I'm in cohort B and riverside regional too!

were you all able to get cleared on time for priority registration? I think she left before she got to my email and I didn't get cleared

It doesn't matter that the nike sign is grayish? I got some black ones but the logo is gray too.

Im using the page without the book prices because someone on here mentioned that the bookstore page says we need coursepoint for more books than we actually do. On the page with only the book names only 3 books have a * that they need coursepoint. I havent checked through the bookstore, i dont know how to. About the shoes, the brand symbol on the side must be black too right? I havent found shoes yet.

Thanks guys! :)

Thank you! & Congratulations on getting in! :)
