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!

Hello evedyone, I have a question. When you get your assignments before orientation, do they let u pick between two days for clinicals? I was wondering becayse within 2 weeks we get our campus assignments. I have to let my boss know which days I will need off .

They don't let you pick per se but i know for my instructor if you had a request on a certain day to just email her about which day you prefer and She'll accommodate you. Hope that made sense to you

How do the lab hours work? I heard its 15 hrs a week. Is this true

Not a week but per semester. The due date is normally at the end of the semester. But 3 hours max per day

Do you lilprmami196 or anyone else know which hospitals were assigned for evenings at DM campus 1-4. I know it's for ur semester class, but orientation they told us they pretty much use the Same for every first semester and throughout the semester. Sometimes it may change depending on what ur focus that semester is, and if that hospital had that specialty.

Hey, yes our professor wrote us 2 weeks ago and said those two hospitals. I hope I am able to get the day I need which is wednesday. She is allowing us to inform her which days we would prefer, but with having no guarantee.
