Having my lab on Thursday was the only way I was able to make it work. In the email it doesn't specify I don't think, just to have labs on opposite days?

You could always email Ms. Wilson

Question! For the castle branch stuff, did you just take pics of your paperwork & upload it? Or did you have to scan it onto the computer?

Koma · Jul 17, 2019

I scan mines to my computer then upload them to castle branch. Did anyone complete their clinical placement form?

Another question: have any of you started buying the stuff we need for classes (scrubs, books, school supplies)? I’m trying to decide if I should start buying stuff now or wait. I’m scared to wait too long because I don’t want things to sell out. Of course I’m going to wait until we can use financial aid for books & probably scrubs too, but everything else, idk.

I haven’t completed mine since I’m still waiting for them to review the medical forms I uploaded. Have you done yours?

Koma · Jul 23, 2019

Yes, I've completed mines and uploaded my compliance documents and send them off to the email they have us.

Did you guys create a Facebook page? Do you want to exchange #'s or emails?

I have purchased my medical attire, but have yet to purchase my shoes and books. Does anyone know which classes we need to show up in our scrubs to? Additionally, if we wear our scrubs the first week..? I'm still a little lost.

Please let us know if you decide to create a Facebook page!

I was gonna make a fb group but I didn’t know if anyone would be interested in joining lol. I’m fine with making one since I’m sure we might be able to answer each others questions better/ faster there.

I'm down for the fb page.

I've bought my scrubs but nothing else yet. I was going to hold off on books for a little bit. Does anyone feel like they might not get all the castle branch stuff uploaded before August 1st?

They are going to be emailing us with a discount for the books i think. They had mentioned that during the orientation. Also, if they haven’t told us to wear scrubs the first day then i would suspect we are not suppose to?

I’m trying to hold off on buying like a stethoscope and all the little extra things we’ll need for classes/ studying. I definitely feel like I won’t have everything uploaded by August 1st even though I just need a few more forms.

Please check your email. I received this email last week from Ms. Wilson. I must say the coupons are abit helpful. I saved a little over $200. The books are expensive nevertheless. I'm not getting financial aid to cover supplies because I'm only taking 10credits this semester. So, I went ahead and purchased all books from lippincott. I still have the other 3 books from Elsevier to purchase.

Is August 1 the deadline? We haven't received the course syllabus or the acknowledgement form for N108, so I think 4 if them are going to be incomplete until we start school. I've completed everything else before our orientation.
