HCC Spring 2017 Nursing Program

Published

Anyone out there know if they are applying for the 2017 Nursing program for HCC (Hillsborough Community College)? I am! Just realized I want to do this so I'm taking A&P 1 and 2, microbiology, and sociology this summer. Apparently its called the crazy train! Anyone else doing something similar?

I might have to take a microbiology lab to satisfy the 4-credit requirement. Some schools allow you to apply for nursing while you're finishing up some per-requisite courses, but acceptance is contingent on completion of the course. Is that the case for HCC?

Yes, in order to apply, all prerequisites need to be completed.

@ucfashley as long as you had the prereqs done by August 15 you should be good to go. I ended up doubling up on classes in the end to have all the classes done in time. My last three classes ended on the 8th of August so I made it by the skin of my teeth.

I hope we know by the first week of October I really couldn't take anymore lol have you noticedbthat we're the first cycle to wait "8-10 weeks " for acceptance rather than "12-15 weeks " . I wonder why .

I do and Im so glad we dont have to wait as long, lol. I think that they are giving people more time to finish pre-reqs, ie august (after summer school) and Jan. for after fall semester.

The timing of the orientation seems to be the same, i guess to give time for background checks, physicals, immunizations, uniforms, etc. - which I am happy they aren't delaying!

Again, just speculation, but thats just what I have pieced together. Im counting down the days and trying to stay busy though! :whistling:

I heard they were trying to shoot for earlier notifications so the orientation could be conducted sooner. I guess the last cycle was tight getting everything done in time for the January start.

I think I'm out of the running guys. I don't think they are accepting my Micro course because it's a 3000 level course :(

Good luck to you guys! Wish you the best
