What's up to all in this forum that were accepted to Wolford College for this October!!!. Congrats everyone...I am looking forward to starting out fast and finishing strong. If you are going to be in the program, please reply and let everyone know your status and questions so far as far as preparing for school.
Anyone looking for a roommate?
What are you doing to get prepared?
Loans secured? which type?
Have you purchase any equipment (laptop, digital recorder, steth, etc..)?
I installed on my iphone, Handbook of Clinical Anesthesia by Paul Barash, Sota Omoigui's Anesthesia Drugs Handbook, Netter's Anatomy flash cards, and Epocrates.
I forgot to tell you that I got most of the software from Skyscape. Which you access the software through their browser on your iphone. Pretty easy to use.
Hello all. I'm a little late in my response :) I am also starting at Wolford on the 22nd. I am crazy excited and nervous at the same time. I am living off my wonderfully supportive husband's income (along with my 2 children) We are all here in sunny Naples. I also got stafford loans to cover tuition. I ordered Anesthesia Secrets but haven't received it yet. I also got Nurse Anesthesia Pocket Guide. I heard that we should get a laser printer for all of our notes, so I'm currently shopping for one. Do any of you know of a good one??
Does Wolford plan on getting a SIM lab? Do the students currently there or have been to Wolford feel they missed out on that experience? How did you prepare without one, just dive on in with real patients? I think I will be applying for Fall 09, Id like to know more about the learning experiences...I read a lot of past posts about how they dont train you to be a CRNA, more like an AA...is that when all the 'switch-over' was taking place and the school wasnt all quite together yet? Two years later, what are the opinions now? Thanks for any info!
Hey good luck ladies and gents...I am just finishing my third semester and will be going full time come september 15. my clinical site will be in Tampa not Naples soooo if you guys ever have any questions about the Tampa clinical sites or if you're trying to make a decision on where to do your clinical hit me up. TRUST me you guys will enjoy your education at Wolford...in my opinion this school is going to be the absolute best school in the state in a couple years once people really start recognizing the things we're doing down here. The school will be getting a simulator lab with like 3 OR(s) in a couple years. The school's new building is crazy nice with cameras everywhere (including 4 in the classrooms....so nooooo cheating). The school is accredited for the next 10 years so no trouble there and last but not least the school has applied and is working on the SACS accreditation to start a DNAP portion next year (Fall)
Hi. I will be applying to Wolford for September 2010. Could you share your experiences from the admissions process..especially the interview...as well as your experiences...and which "hub" for clinicals you would suggest...I am leaning towards the Tampa hub. Thanks!!!
How far in advance did you submitt your application and everything to WOLFORD? I would like to apply for the Sept 10 or Febuary 11! THANKS! Also would anyone feel inclined to share stats?
hey! I am attending wolford in the spring 2010. Any advice on how to prepare for the program? Any suggestions on what I need to purchase? Any help would be great!
