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?

The deadline for Spring has passed, but for anyone who can or wants to wait for next fall, Polk State College, while a bit of a drive, is promising, especially for those who did relatively well on the TEAS. Their waiting period wasn't anywhere near as long, either. I turned in my application on Sept 15 (last day to turn it in) and heard back on Sept 28. Just letting everyone know they have options :)

I did. They calculated my GPA different, tho. I retook A&P 1 and 2 and they counted it, but HCC didn't because I passed the classes with a C the first time. I pretty much knew I wasn't getting in to HCC, but I applied anyways.

But I do know how terrible it feels not to get in, because I've been trying for almost two years to get in somewhere. I'm so sorry for everyone who didn't get in, but don't give up!!

I am so afraid to even check my email at this point because im not sure if they are looking at prerequisite courses or not. I wonder if they are not counting second attempts.

USF only counted first attempt, so it is possible.
