Hillsborough Community College - Spring 2014

U.S.A. Florida

Hello all,

I wanted to start a thread for those applying to HCC's Spring 2014 nursing program. I am a stay at home mom. I know its early but I wanted to get as much info as possible. The deadline isn't until 6/1. I'm a current HCC student. My pre-req GPA is 3.57 (all A's 1 B and 1 C ), I'm hoping that this is good enough to get me a spot in the program.

What is everyone elses GPA? I heard its lower for the Spring.

I think they do campus assignments based on GPA, The higher your GPA the better your chances of getting your 1st choice campus assignments. My favorite campus is by far South Shore but its not an option for me since im doing nights/weekends and that will be at DM in the Spring. Ohh well.. I will learn to deal with the DM traffic since its going to be my second home for the next 2 years.

i should be good to get into SS. my gpa is a 3.86. but if they send me to DM then ill do that happily. im just glad to be in the program.

Did Hallberry post if she got her letter and I missed it?

She's in Orlando so she said she didn't either

I'm hoping for nights and weekends since my hubby needs to babysit:-) But I'm not worried,I'm sure I'll get it

Hi all, just got home and got my letter, but unfortunately I was denied. They miscalculated my gpa to be a 3.3 but I have. 3.57... I'm super upset!!

I'm sorry Hallberry. Are you planning on appealing? I would try and at least make a case for your GPA. Hang in there.

I am definitely going to appeal. Don't know anything about the process after the appeal, but I'm fighting!

Good deal! Let us know how it goes. If you look at prior years threads, there are always people who get their GPA miscalculated and most get in.

Hang in there.

That STINKS!! Make sure you file an appeal to have them recalculate your GPA. Unfortunatley there is always a couple people every semester that have their GPA calculated wrong. I hope they fix it for you in time to join our class.

This weekend me,deltacrux and fx have made plans to celebrate,anyone who wants to join us can pm me and we can decide on a time,date and place,;-)

Does anyone know how many alternate spots there are? I am still praying that I get in. I unfortunately will have to wait a little longer until I find out but I am at least more hopeful now. I thought for sure I wouldn't get in. A stupid "C" in English from over 10 years ago is pulling my GPA down but have had all A's since returning to school at HCC to pursue nursing.
