Hello everyone. I just wanted to start the thread for all the new applicants of RCC's Nursing Program for Spring 2014. This thread is to help each other stay current with old and new information about the program. Share your thoughts about the application process, teas V preparation, acceptance, and support group. Let the applications begin!!

I think they said most felonies, DUIs from 7 years and sooner, convictions, violence.....I'm sure there is more, but that's all I can think if at the moment

WOW!!

It's because the Board of Nursing won't issue you a license after you pass the NCLEX.

Hi Steph, do you mind telling me how did you get your background/drug test result. I placed an order for the background check, then went to Quest Diagnostics for the drug screen. They gave me the receipt. But I wonder how do I find out my result? And what do I use to prove to the nursing school? Thank you!
Hi Tampham, well after I placed my order I went to Quest and in like 2days they emailed me my results, because I asked to get a copy of it. They send those to the school. But it says on there if it came out good or not. Have you received anything yet thru your email?

You guys think people on standby should be reading already? Or, should we purchase the books and do the background checks?
I would do the backround just in case you do get in, that wont stop you from not being able to start.

I didn't know that there was a box to check. Can the school tell me if everything came back ok?

They would probably tell you if you call them. I would imagine if something bad came up they would email/call you about it. That's I what think though!

Yea, I just saw the email in my junk mailbox. :) Look like everything is ok. Did you buy the books yet? I couldnt find the "Pre Publication" label on the website. :(

Ok that is GOOD!;) But what do you mean? If you go to the link that the adviser sent to us thru email, it takes you directly to that link. It says out of stock, but you can still purchase it. I haven't yet,I was waiting to get payed today to start ordering my first batch of books

If you look at the publication date, it's dated for the end if this month.
