Riverside Community College Spring 2013

Published

I just like to start a new thread for spring 13 cohort. Currently, I'm invited to take the TEAS test on Friday, Nov 9th (update: just received an email that date has been changed to 16th). For those of you that applied for spring 13, let's keep all related info on this thread and I will help out if you got any questions.

Good luck on the test!

I received my uniform few days ago, took them at least 3-4 weeks to process. Checked my email: ordered on 12/19/2012 - shipped via ups on 01/13/13. lol

Hey guys, so I'm cleared through the immunizations people, background is pending, drug test is today, what is the next step? Does something need to be sent to the nursing health lady at RCC?

I received my uniforms a couple of days ago as well. I ordered them 12/25. Malia09, you don't have to send anything to the nursing health lady(lol) unless she specifically asks you for something or there is an error that needs to be fixed.

Does anyone know if we are allowed to wear the white nursing jackets? How long does the background check take? Also has anyone paid for the ATI testing? I asked and she said we could hold off for a week or 2 after school starts. Because all my money is going towards the clearance, books and uniforms I was goign to wait until i received my financial aid.

I bought my ATI stuff. It's crazy how much money I've spent so far! I still need shoes, pay for the classes, parking permit, medical bag and a couple books from the bookstore! Eek! It's totally worth it though

Kammbamm, we can only wear the short sleeve zip-up designated. We were told that we can purchase the C9 by Champion powercore tees to wear underneath for extra warmth. I'm surprised she said you could wait to purchase the ATI testing. During orientation I remember being told that we are to pick up our box of books and what not from the school a week before class starts. There are assigned readings from it for our first week of school. Well, it's nice that you don't have to spend another big chunk of money so soon:)

Malia09, I know! I have easily spent $1000 by now and it is defintiely worth it :) Has anyone heard anything about which medical bag we are supposed to purchase?

Kammbamm- one more thing. I was looking at the paperwork and it also says that when the ATI package isn't order by Jan 28th there will be a late fee of $35 (charged by ATI). Just wanted you to know just in case she didn't tell you.

Is there anything assigned that first week besides the reading that we need to complete? I thought I saw somewhere thatwe needed to watch some video?
