✓one,60 dollars is way too much for two scrubs!and why are international students charged 60 dollars (250,000) and local students 150,000 Uganda shillings?.
✓Two, the uniform is exactly the same as those for nursing students!, UpTo the point that doctors at the hospital find it difficult to differentiate medical students from nursing students.
Third, why would they charge us for scrub that are long sleeves? What's the point when you can't go into theatre with it. It a uniform for nursing not a scrub for medical students.

The administration has acknowledged the petition and a meeting is now set to discuss the fee structure. I have begun drafting a formal request to break down the cost discrepancies between local and international student charges.

Personally I don't think the prices the school offers for the scrubs are fair. And from what I've experienced previously with the clinical coats provided by the school, the material was way poor quality than what the prices they asked for would be expected to buy and to top it off, they have made it mandatory to pay for them. Also the institution should at least agree with the students on what color they would prefer if they care that much about uniformity. Al the students don't like the color the institution currently prefers.
60dollars is expensive to us as internationals and the colour of the scrubs the school is telling us to buy is the uniform for nursing certificate to an extent that doctors cant teach us because they consider us as nursing student and not a medical student
It should be removed ! First of all iam struggling to pay tuition !! Now the amount for minimum registration has gone up because of scrubs
We have already made scrubs and at half the price we are being charged. It's not fair to make us buy.
Scrubs should be optional. And what was worse is telling us they are compulsory one week into the rotation. Some year 4s haven't yet got there's still.
I don’t want scrubs I bought mine
That is broad day robbery that deal should be omitted

I'd like for the school remove mandatory payment for the poor quality school scrubs that are overpriced
