Are you starting at Tenn Tech in Elizabethton? Anywho, the books cost about $350 give or take, I don't remember what mine cost. The school's bookstore can give you an updated list of books and prices.
Good luck

Hey tony,
thanks so much for your reply. I am due to start at ttc in elizabethton in may. Im trying to get a heads up on how much it's going to cost. Im going to go tomorrow to get financial aid papers. Did you go to ttc-elizabethton? If so i would appreciate any info if you did. Like what to expect,how hard and any advice. I've been out of the loop for a long time. I'm 35 and have been out of school a long time!
Thank you so much,
selena
Sorry, was hoping that you were going to Tenn Tech, maybe you can say what school you are going to and someone that went there will chime in with costs, but ball park, just say $400 and you should be fairly close. As for me, I'm just starting my 2nd semester out of 3 at TTC and I like it. The instructors are good, classmates are awesome, some very smart ones, there are two girls in my class that usually make a 100, but they work very, very hard.
Once you start, strive for as high a grade in every class that you can, because you could stumble later in the semester and if you do, your early high grade will cancel out the later lower grade. We've lost many girls a point or two below minimum passing score of 81.
Good luck to you, nursing school is very hard, try not to work during school if you can.
p.s. I'm way older than you at 42, so you can do it, we have students from 18 to 60 yo.
