UNG Fall 2013

So the sizes you ordered... were they true to your "street" clothes sizes? or did you have to adjust and got it right.

I got the drawstring pants which is a unisex style. I went by the waist size for the men which put me in between the S/M. Since I heard the pants run big, I ordered the S. I usually wear a S in shirts so I ordered a S. So that would be true to my street clothes size. Although I heard the tops run big I ordered the S anyways. We have enough time to return them if need be since I've heard we won't be doing clinicals till the end of the semester.

I guess it didn't post...... but the top sizes where similar to my street wear. I went down a size in the pants (I got the drawstring pair) bc I heard they run big. Hope this helps! You should have plenty if time to send them back if they don't fit. I heard we won't be doing clinicals till second half of the first semester anyways.

Does anyone know what books are in the bundle? I was hoping to get isbn and try finding them cheaper online.

From previous threads it says the ISBN # will be posted with the name of the books when the bookstore post the Fall books online in July. Right now they still have the summer list up. I think if you reserve them you get a 5% discount.

I'll probably reserve mine & pick them up during orientation.

If you look under the Dahlonega campus instead of the Cumming one it gives you an ISBN#. When I looked that number up on the internet, I didn't get anything. It did look like it will be about $396 for the book package.

I got mine Tuesday. Everything was good except I mistakenly ordered a M for the top instead of a S.

I ordered smalls on everything. Pants fits. Polo kind of big but they don't have an XS so I guess this will have to do. Jacket fitted as well.

What size do you normally wear in tops and bottoms? I am trying to compare, because I'm ordering like on Monday! :)

I just saw this! This is very helpful! Thank you! :)

Good idea!

I wear S shirts and 8-10 in pants

Of course a 8-10 is M in pants from Meridy's. So I got a S since they run big.

Yeah that ISBN# didn't have enough numbers in it. I googled it too. No luck. Lol. I'm sure when the fall books are released on the website we can see the name of the books as well as the individual ISBN #'s.

You can contact the woman in the bookstore that adds this all into the system. Her name is Annie and she is on the Dahlonega campus. She is the textbook manager, and as long as the teacher's have submitted the book lists (and I'm sure they have by now) she can give the list to you. If she cannot give you this years book list, she will give you last years book list. She did that for me last year.

As for the uniforms - the tops seems true to the measurements on the Meridys website. The pants run big. I wear a size 16 in pants, and the large scrub pants fit me, and in fact were a bit baggy. The website was right on about the size. Under the style M9143 (the drawstring pants) it says Large is for a size 16-18 and I would agree!

You should receive your uniform items with plenty of time to return and exchange if they don't fit. I received mine within two weeks of my order. I didn't need to return anything, but would've had plenty of time to do so. I ordered mine about two months before orientation.

However, keep in mind - if clinicals are the same as last year - you won't even need your scrub top or scrub pants until October when you have your first clinicals.

I was on the Gainesville campus and we were required to wear our lab coats to lab, and that starts the first week of class.

So you will need your lab coat right away, and you will also need your polo shirt fairly early on to do your service learning.
