HCC Spring 2017 Nursing Program

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?

Which one? We only have to turn in the acceptance conformation, the money order and background form by the 11th right?

yep that's it!

It's the "Release of Background Check Results Request Form" one. At the bottom they ask 3 questions and I'm not sure how to answer them lol. I'm going to go see an advisor tomorrow for help I think, I just wanted to see if anyone else was confused by them

I really don't know what to do . apply for fall maybe ? Anyone that got denied doing that ?

Doesn't look like it would matter. I mean if I retook a class I got a C in, looks like they would still consider my C so I don't know what the best move is at this point. I got accepted to South University which is a private school and super expensive so I'm thinking about just moving forward with the program but I really don't want to.

I am questioning the same thing, One C brought my GPA down and it appears that retaking that course for a better result is null and void according to some other posts.

Pasco Hernando State College and Polk State College take best attempt classes, and St. Pete College takes most recent attempt, I believe regardless of whether the grade was higher or not. I would say re-apply to HCC in the Fall, but open up your options with other schools around the community. Pasco-Hernando costs $25 per campus you apply to, but Polk and St. Pete are free to apply (after applying to the college). Just keep trying and it'll pay off :) Hope this helps!

Stats change all the time and I heard they accept more applicants in the fall, so it's worth a try.

Congrats to everyone that got in :D

Does South University offer a night program?

I would highly recommend that you avoid for profit colleges. Just look at what happened with ITT Tech.

How many times did you take the class? If you get an A, then it brings your grade up. If it is the third time you take it then it will take .2 points off your overall GPA.

As for the questions on the bottom of the background check, I bet they can help us answer those questions when we go to the Ybor campus to fill it out. But, yeah it was seriously confusing.
