Hi all meka26 here with a few questions about veeb,
Fist off I've been searching for so long to see if a new thread has been started for the 2017-2018 class,since the testing dates has been opened for some time already, but couldn't find any ������. So here's the question how much time do you get for the examine, has anybody taken the math lesson being offered,what are the topics being covered on the examine and lastly has anyone been accepted already? if so congrats.
During apply they gave you a paper on the scrub website. Yes it's expensive but they don't accept any other scrubs. Don't wait until the last minute. My sister did and she missed the first day of class. Also it gets really cold in the class AC is on 24/7. Certain teachers will put it high and low. I recommend you getting the jacket because they don't allow you to wear sweaters. But your allowed to leave a long sleeve basic shirt underneath black and white only.
Did anyone hear back from the school after their physical? I know they explained that you aren't fully done with registration until everything with your physical is cleare. Orientation is the 26th of July for me.
I had my physical Sunday July 16. I received an email from the school Thursday. The subject title of the email was "Final Orientation" and this was the content of the email:
Dear Student:
This is the final orientation that has been scheduled for you and it is mandatory for the Fall 2017 PN Program, on Wednesday, July 26, 2017 at 1:30 a.m. sharp in Hicksville, New York. Failure to complete your orientation will result in the forfeiting of your seat in the September 2017 PN Program.
Included during orientation will be the following:
You must have an ink pen to complete all registration forms and sign the VEEB Financial Aid contract.
You will be given information regarding classes and school policies.
You will receive course modules, required book list and written assignments.
All information in the modules are your responsibility to know and you will be tested on this material during the first week of school.
You will need to bring in $20.00 (cash only) on orientation day for the required photo I.D.
We will be in both class and clinical's five days a week. I brought three white scrub tops as well as three navy blue scrub tops. I got both in extra, extra small. I also purchased the warm-up jacket in the size extra small. Cherokee scrubs run big so make sure you check the size chart.

I did hear at least a few of the books from last year are changing, which sucks. In my experience I haven't really used them much. But if you're a textbook person, go for it by all means, just be wary of the costs. Do you need to buy all the books at this time? Not really.
If you feel cold easily, you definitely will want a jacket or undershirt.
Make sure you're sleeping schedule is set, because you do not want to be late, especially on test days! So be sure to factor in possible traffic.
They do have parking, but the first month, month and a half will be tough, since BOTH sections will be in the building . You do not have a choice in your clinical site btw.
Also, if you get you flu shot before VEEB has OEMLI administer them, make sure you have documentation ready!
