I'm starting this thread to try and connect with anyone who may be applying for TCC's Nursing program for Spring of 2013. I just applied yesterday, and I'm nervous!
Thanks so much Katie!
I sent an email to the generic Health Education email account asking if I was in good standing (I knew I was but I didn't want there to be anything that kept me from starting!), and I got a reply with only a row of info from a spreadsheet (basically checking off each of our requirements, and the CRMC and Health South quizzes were unchecked). No other form of response like, "You're all set."
I was a little worried since I'm submitting my notice this week at work.
Does anyone know if we need to bring our books to class or not?
I don't know for sure but I plan on bringing them just in case. I don't want to need them and not have them. Although I'm still waiting to buy my Smeltzer(I think thats the author) book, as I need my next paycheck for it.lol. Out of curiosity where did you find shoes that meet the requirements? It sounds stupid but I have been having problems finding some.
I got skechers (nice low profile shoe that doesn't scream WHITE LEATHER SHOE) from Famous Footwear, but you may want to order them (expedited!). Women's Skechers Dream Come True Wht/Lt.Gry-Wlgy FamousFootwear.com
I'm dreading bringing the books to class...they're all enormous!
Thanks for the ideas about the shoes. Mom mother was in Orlando and was outlet shopping and came across a scrub and nursing supply outlet store and she found some plain white leather shoes and bought them for me! She texted me pictures and they look decent, I just hope they fit!lol.
I figured with the books! I really hope all of mine get here in time! I ordered mine online and I'm still waiting for some of them. I'm also contemplating getting a backpack with wheels, I know it's super dorky but I would rather have that than a sore back :) also, how many pairs of scrubs did everyone get? I got the suggested two plus the fleece but I don't feel like that is enough...

I got mine at g willies it took about 3 weeks. I want to say they were about $30 a piece but I'm not 100% because I also got the fleece jacket which is a little more than the scrubs. Also the TCC bookstore said the nursing books will be in about the 2nd week of december
