Do you pay the day the lippincott rep is there? Or do they charge to your student account for Financial Aid to.cover? Do you recall the total for the package? And how much are uniforms ? Sorry for.all the questions. Thank you for your.time!

No, you'd pay online at your leisure-- they will give you the info. Nothing is charged to your student account except for classes and the misc. school fees. They have different packages.. I think the package I bought was the Lippincott one around ~$1200. I chose to buy the Elsevier and others separately. The discount/rebate is like 20% I believe. Uniforms were $52 for the tops and $40 for the bottoms, but they may have changes prices since then. The company is Dove apparel. No problem! There are quite a few other things to buy as well... the supply bag, Kaplan, examsoft... it adds up!

Hi there! Actually, I had just spoken with the sweetest young lady in person at SON and notices are going out tomorrow. Also, We will be getting the date for Intake day tomorrow as well. Hope this helps ?

Hi! Thank you for the update. Maybe the notifications that will be sent out on the week of the 16th are for the bridge applicants. Which I applied to both.

Applicants that got admitted for the CEP program have to attend "intake day" on Dec 16th. This is where we can purchase books, uniforms, discuss immunization records and background checks etc etc.
