I know some of us were discouraged to find out that we didnt get in for Fall. The cut off was the highest theyve ever seen and some were shocked to find out their true pre-req GPA. We have another chance to accomplish our dream of becoming an RN and I am hopeful we will all get in for Spring. Historically it is an easier semester to get into, last GPA cutoff for 2019 Spring was a 3.381 so there is hope. If you dont mind posting GPA and TEAS and when youve submitted the app. Round 2, lets go!
Good luck everyone! I'm really hoping for Dale Mabry Nights. I have a 3.574 GPA and an 83 TEAS score.
According to someone I spoke to at HCC, don’t remember who, they don’t look at your TEAS actual score, only that you passed it. It’s a pass/fail thing. They pretty much look at your pre-req GPA and that you passed the TEAs is my understanding but I could have been misinformed.

Ahh, well, that makes sense, but kind of sucks. Finger's crossed that my GPA is good enough. I've seen that there are some discrepancies in how HCC is calculating GPA. Does anyone know how that's happening? I have a previous BS degree; are they using all of those credits? Or just the pre-req credits?
I would recommend using a GPA calculator to ensure you are calculating your GPA accurately. Previous college degree's does not put you at an advantage over someone who doesn't have a college degree. Also, HCC uses first attempts to calculate your GPA. Unfortunately, many of us in the past didn't take this into consideration.
@Tiese Scott I definitely don't think it's going to give me an advantage; I apologize if it came across that way. I just don't know if the school is going to use all of my previous credits in calculating my GPA as is show on WebAdvisor or if they will only be using the grades I earned with my pre-req courses.
Your message didn't come off that way ? I know some schools take into consideration if you have a previous degree. As far as GPA it's based strictly on our prerequisite courses. Wishing you the best!
