SPC Spring 2013 hopeful, anyone else biting their nails?!?!

[tmcneill0524]

I will be sending my official Spring 2013 app in on 7/20! All pre-reqs completed except for micro (which I am already registered for in the fall before the program would begin), and a GPA of 3.78 on my pre-reqs. Wish I hadn't been such a goof off back in 1997 when I took Composition I! I am also an employee with Baycare and applying for the EAYL progam. I was just praying to find other people out there, in a similar situation, a little support and just knowing we aren't alone in this nerve wrecking path would be nice.

the as far as i know the background and drug test has to be completed by wednesday. did you purchase the certified profile package? it has a to do list for you. that's where you receive your instructions also on where to go.

I have a question about the immunizations maybe you will know. I got my record from my doctor but my shots go back atleast 10 years, I finished all my required ones, do you know if they expire in 10 years or so. Or how often they need to be updated?

You may just need to get some titers done for the hepatitis, varicella and mmr to show immunity, the tb you have to have 2 consecutive years showing negative results or a chest xray showing negative...the tdap & flu shot i got from my job this year. hope that helps but i don't think we have to have all that done before orientation.

Does anyone know when the SPC orientation is? I am in the EAYL program and I havent had my health screening yet, I go in 2 weeks. Do only the people going thru the SPC program have to have their drug screen and background in by orientation. I believe their doing my drug screening when I go in 2 weeks, but I just wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything. thanks

I was also accepted through the EAYL program & have been so freaked out about not receiving any information about orientation, checklists to complete, etc. all I have received is an email stating when to pick up my tuition voucher.

I havent even recieved that email yet! But I havent been for my health screening yet and to sign the promisory note, ect. so I assume I will get it after that....

I haven't been notified that I needed a health screening? Are you an employee? I am so I'm hoping my health screening task is fulfilled? Who knows, & the school is closed for Vets day:-(

Hi Guys-

I am a Baycare employee and I was also selected for the EAYL program. I keep checking MySPC to see if I am enrolled in classes, but currently I am not. I look forward to meeting everyone soon.

I also have been accepted with an expansion program. I was told by an HEC advisor today, that SPC will be sending out an email this week to facilitate drug/background checks. The hospital I am with said the orientation for EAYL/Expansion is December 5th.

Those of you who went to the orientation: Do you mind posting the required textbook list? I don't have orientation for another two weeks and I want to start textbook shopping before prices go up on Amazon. Thanks!
