hillsborough community college SPRING 2015

Application deadline is june 1st. I will be cutting it close as my last exam is on may 6th!

Hello - I'm applying for the nursing program in June as well and I'm super nervous!

Hi and welcome! Thank you for joining. Im very nervous also but excited that this is closing up for me. I have been at HCC for 3 years to prereq classes. Im in last semester. Im taking micro and humanities early history... are u completely done with prereq classes?

Thanks! : ) I'm in my last semester as well...I'm currently taking A&P 2 (lecture) Early American History, Statistics and speech. I keep trying to stay motivated by constantly researching anything related to nursing, lol[/quote']

Thats great! Im taking early history also at brandon campus... hum 2210. I talked with an advisor yesterday and she said speech and computer arent required because its a program. I dont feel she is correct... ill be taking it anyways.. and she said to graduate from usf a foreign language is required also. So if we xfer to usf it would be better to have taken class at HCC. What are ur goals after u finish the program? Sometimes I find it easing to talk about the future... o and did u know that all nurses has an application? U can load it from the google play store on ur phone for free

Hi all I was a Spring 2013 applicant for HCC. I was denied due to a non-GPA issue, but some things happened in my life where this denial wasn't the end of the world. Anyway, if you have any questions about my experience, feel free to drop me a line![/quote']

Hi and thank you for writing, are u going to be applying this time around again? Hope all is well with u.

No, as I'm currently in a non-Nursing Masters program. Due to that, soonest I would reapply to HCC is Fall 2015, that is after I take MAC1114 to boost my prereq GPA during my summer break from Grad School. :) My offer stands though, any questions about my experience, let me know!

Ok thats great! Sounds like u have a great chance! What was thr lowest gpa in your group that u are aware got in during the spring group? Im currently 3.6 but if I get an A for my micro and in lab ill have a 3.7 but if not, ill get a 3.5

If memory serves I want to say 3.4. 3.6 you should have nothing to worry about, 3.7 should be a definite admission. I had(have) a 3.52 which was on the fence of alternate/accept at the time. This is why I'm taking Trigonometry this summer, since if I get an A, my 3.52 will become 3.67, (it would replace my B in College Algebra) and Fall GPA minimums are much higher than Spring. So you're in a good spot right now.

Btw, Speech and a Computer class are not Prereqs:

Hillsborough Community College - Curriculum Prerequisites

Also-- deadline for Spring is what, June-ish? I will tell you, you won't get an admissions answer until the 3rd week of September or so. And then they only give you ONE WEEK to appeal if anything goes wrong. It's not pretty, if it comes to that.

Wow! Only 1 week! They definitely dont play.. that sucks that the 3rd week of septemeber is when we will be notified. . Well ill be taking spanish in the sunmer time so hopefully this will keep my mind busy. Arent the speech and computer class required for graduation tho? And how does financial aid work with the program? How much is the program?
