Did you have to wear particular scrubs???? Or were at liberty to get whatever kind/color you wanted?

Did you wear them to class as well or just your clinical?

It has to be a certain color to match 's color, yellow top and dark blue bottom. Drexel provides you a place in the city where you go in and get fitted; they sew drexel's name on the scrub.

You don't have to wear them to go to lecture, just clinical and CLRC lab.

Hey. Thanks for the information. I appreciate it. Doesn't so so bad. I'm glad its not white. :-)

no the yellow is pretty bad. you can see an ACE student from a mile away. and we definitely stick out on the floors.

Oh no! Is it like glow in the dark yellow?! LOL. Hmm. Oh well. I didn't choose for the attire. I was hoping I could wear "Cute" scrubs. Are they strict about what kind of shoes too?

I guess I'll learn all of this at orientation. Whenever that is.

yea, the yellow is not a good kind of yellow. Everyone can spot you from miles away and know that you're from ; and you won't be hide when you're on the floor, hahaha. Some people get the shoes from that place i mentioned but I think they're pretty pricey... you can just get a pair of all white leather sneaker from footlocker or something....

Just wanted to put in that the bright white lab coat (which it seems people always mistake me to be a doctor,lol, always had to correct) by midway thru second quarter will be in your house in the lost and found pile.

After a while it made me hot and at times got in the way. Just my 2 cents. Its a great souvenir though.:)

You guys are so lucky - I had to wear white pants and shoes with an ugly yellow *cotton* polo shirt. Plus the white jacket - it seemed like a practical joke every day. Now the I see the ACE students in blue scrub pants and a yellow scrub shirt. Much much much much better.

p.s. I burned that fugly uniform in celebration the day I passed the final HESI.
