Tarrant County Spring 2012 Applicants

Published

I am starting this for anyone who is applying for the TCC RN program in August.

rossy- that's great!! did they say if the sale was at all scrub etc? stores? the one.off precinct has a massive selection.. but I'm def. gonna go!

cross- I know! I just figured that if its not mandatory then I wont do it. That $80 can go towards something we really need...

I didn't ask about the other stores, I just know of the one at 1524 Pennsylvania Ave. Fort Worth, TX 76104

I almost bought my scrubs online, but I know I'll save a lot more if I wait for this sale and even more important to me is that I will get to try them on. I heard that the greys anatomy run small, so I want to make sure that they are comfortable before I buy them.

I tried scrubs on at the store and then bought them online. They had the dickies scrub tops i bought; at the store for $16.95, and i bought them online for $10, no tax, free shipping. But if they have those at a big discount during the sale, ill stock up. I know scrubs with prints are going to be the cheapest, if they have those for a super good deal, like "WOW, THAT'S A LOW PRICE!" good deal, i might grab some for after we graduate and get jobs :D

Do we have any news from our alternate list yet? I know it is very stressful for those waiting. Just keep you chin up and don't loose your hope.

Hey All! No news yet.... However, If the 90-95% is true I may not make it either way. It is stressful waiting but still hoping! :) Thanks for checking.

ajk- I didn't mean it in a discouraging way... i still believe that you all still have a good chance. A lot of other people are going to different schools and someother schools still havent sent out letters yet,so I'm sure you will hear something soon. There is still a lot of time anyway. Like I said before, they take people up to the last minute! So I apologize if I made you feel discouraged in anyway. Plus Student says the spring and fall 2012 class graduate.together which is cool!

Student- no I haven't gotten them yet, they called when I was at steak and shake..haha! but that is awesome! S.N.?? we have a title!!! lol.

TX- You didn't offend me at all! All information is helpful. I am hoping, praying, fingers crossed and all but the reality is I am 19th on the list. I will keep you all posted and continue to follow the thread. I emailed her today just to see if the alternate list moved up at all. Hope to know something sooner than later!

You still graduate in the fall if you finish in the fall, you just don't walk until the spring with the rest of the school. They do have a special pinning ceremony/graduation for the nursing students and that takes place both in the fall and the spring. This is separate from the whole college. Once you graduate, you can go on to taking your boards and become an RN before actually walking with the class.

Specializes in Hoping to do either L&D or Trauma.

Just completed my background check, so that's one more thing off the list! I ordered my nametags on 11/2 so hopefully they are in soon as well. Tomorrow I'm going to pay for the skills kit and CPR certification, since I figured those were the only things that HAD to be paid by the 15th I think.

I keep seeing mention of Dorothy's Scrubs - where in FTW is that? Does it have as good of a selection as Scrubs Etc?

I'm gonna pay for my skills kit soon, but for the CPR when the date gets closer cause I know I'm.going to lose the receipt lol.
