Hillsborough Community College Fall 2015

Published

Just finished my prereqs and getting my application ready to submit for the fall term at Hillsborough Community College. All A's and except one C for my prereqs, brings my GPA to 3.71. Hopefully it's good enough to get me in.

Anyone else applying to this school for fall?

Alicat,

So I'm taking the TEAS tomorrow..not anywhere near prepared for it 😑...I've seen other people get print outs of their score immediately after testing, did HCC do this? I'm embarrassed for anyone to see what I score...probably gonna have to do the retake, didn't devote anywhere near enough time to study.

PS-no posts here, still???!? Lol

Well, I passed! (Just barely)..luckily they're not going by the highest scores! Lol

Hello, I applied to HCC 2015 fall semester. I have a B.S. in Business from USF and also applied to their accelerated program. I doubt I will be accepted to USF since they get way more applicants. I also applied to SCF in Bradenton and Florida SouthWestern State College in Punta Gorda as back ups. I am doing a career change out of management and will be 38 this year. I'm excited for a new career path and a little nervous doing a change at my age. I took the TEAS V but only scored a 77.4 overall. I have to take it again and improve my grammar score to apply at SCF. Its interesting how each school has so many different requirements and tests for entrance. I had to write an essay for USF, take 4 extra classes for SCF, take HESI entrance exam for FSW, and TEAS for HCC.

For those that stalked other threads, do you know what the lowest GPA they accepted in the last few semesters? My prerequisite GPA is only 3.57. I won't win a tie breaker since my over all GPA is much lower. Being accept at HCC southshore campus would be ideal for me. I only live half a mile from it and would be so convenient, since I have a toddler to take care of.

I think its hard to find this post bc of the tags used. If you type in HCC nursing fall 2015 it doesn't come up unless you spell out HCC. Just a thought. I applied to the fall program with a GPA 3.57, which is pretty low for fall. I applied last year but got denied bc I was unaware they deduct .2 if you've attwmpted a class 3x. Not sure why my academic advisor didn't inform me or guide me on what course to take. However, I didn't submit my HS transcript again since they already have it on file and I couldnt get it time, so I'm thinking I'll be denied for incomplete app and have to apply for spring. But I guess it could be ok since spring is easier to get into.

I just got my acceptance letter from HCC; it was dated 2/25/15. I have till 3-16th to accept and complete the process. However, my letter doesn't state what campus I'm assigned. I'm hoping I am assigned to South Shore since I live only a few blocks away.

Mine didn't say which either. My letter did say that I needed to respond by the 6th though. Did we have to specify which campus we wanted when we applied? I can't remember! I really hope I get dale mabry. South shore would be too far for me to commute.

I just looked at the application ans it looks like all transition students go to Dale Mabry

Hey! Do you know if the books have changed in the last year? I have a friend that I want to buy them from who is about to graduate. Also, are you at Dale Mabry? If you are there can you tell me where you have done clinicals.

My acceptance letter is for the Nursing Basic Fall 2015 program. That is why I'm surprised I received a letter so early.
