Hillsborough Community College-Fall 2014

Published

Hello everyone,

So my dream since I can remember has been to become a nurse; however, it seems as if it will never happen. I recently finished my pre-requisite courses to apply to the fall semester of the HCC nursing program. While I did not get any C's I made mostly B's :blink:earning A's in two classes and one lab. I realize this is not good enough since it puts my GPA at around a 3.38. Since I did not fail any of my classes, I don't believe I will be able to retake them. Is there any possible way to retake them? Or any way to increase my GPA since they mainly look at the pre-requisite courses? If not, what other options do I have for becoming a nurse? If anyone is out there who could offer any help it would be greatly appreciated. I will submit my application regardless but I don't have any high hopes of getting accepted, if there is anyway to increase my chances I would be so grateful to find out!

IN WITH A 3.81!!!!!! :DDDDD

Congrats!!!

Thats GREAT !!!!! It looks like HCC is on point this semester with getting the letters out on time. CONGRATULATIONS to you and everyone else that get accepted into the program for FALL 2014. For those that get alternate letters, hang in there you still have a chance. Every semester there are some alternates that get in so there is still hope...Good Luck....

How do we know if we would he considered alternates? Do they let alternates know when the acceptance letter go out? Does anyone know?

From what I've seen on previous semester threads.... The acceptance, alternate, and denial letters were sent all at the same time..

If you get an alternate seat, they let you kow you were not accepted but are on a wait list to get into the program if those who were accepted decline their seats. If your denied, its a flat out denial. Some people appeal but its unlikely that will go anywhere. Most seats are full once alternates get in.
