HFCC Winter 2017

[mervin17]

Hey everyone. I just applied to the HFCC program for Winter 2017 and thought I would start a thread to see if anyone else will be applying too. I am pretty nervous and would like to get some insight as to how many points you had when you got accepted.

Thanks!

Are you guys bringing someone? Also, is anyone just terrified of nursing school? I mean.. I already anticipated being challenging and have everything in order but I have no idea what to expect!

Yeah I'm coming alone. I feel like bringing someone is for really young kids who have parents at home and such. We can all being each other lol!

As far as being terrified. I'm not at all. I am so excited to start! I don't think I've ever been this excited about something in my life.

Only think I'm nervous about it the nclex. Lol. And we have plenty of time to prepare for that! We are ALL going to be fine. We will help each other. Also we seem to be a really proactive group of people here, we will be fine. :)

So tips for everybody, bring lunch or snacks to class, there is NO food for purchase here in this building and the only options nearby are an Italian place, a Wendys and a Tim Hortons. But there are microwaves in the lobby. Also, the Elsavier lady came in to ramble on again about the books so be prepared...
