Hillsborough Community College Nursing Program Application Spring Semester 2023

Published

Specializes in Nursing.

Hello my fellow nurse hopefuls, this topic is geared for the Nursing program in Spring 2023 at HCC. This is my first time applying for it so I am praying I get accepted. While going through last Spring’s  posts (for 2022), I learned some with a GPA of 3.33 were selected; I don’ know what was the cutoff. My prerequisites GPA is 3.47, total GPA is 3.72 and TEAS 73.3%…

I wish everyone good luck!

Hello, I haven't finished my prerequisites yet, I'm taking MAC1105 along with POS2041 this semester then I'll be finished. I also haven't taken my TEAS yet, but I'm planning on doing that soon. If I may ask, why didn't you apply for the August 15 deadline? Also have you already applied for Spring 2023?

Oh, I did apply for the august 15th deadline (I guess I wasn’t cleared on my post) which is for the 2023 Spring program. The school sent me an email acknowledging having received all the paperwork. I think the next deadline is May 15th for 2023 Fall program.

I'm so sorry, I misunderstood. I'm going to be applying for the Fall program. If you don't mind me asking how was the application process? I'm very nervous about applying. I also went through Springs 2022 posts and I saw that they mentioned ranking the cohort that they want. Do you do this when applying? I'm only asking because I've looked through the application and I don't see anything about that. I wish you the best of luck!

So, I also saw the post from Spring 2022 applicants but  didn’t see anywhere on the application about ranking the cohorts. I am thinking as soon as they send the email that one has been selected, we get the choice to rank the cohorts.  
And the application process is very simple, just make sure all the items on the application checklist are fulfilled. I double checked everything and had it submitted a month an half in advance. As of August 15th, everything showed as received.  
If I can do this, so can you, so just make sure you send everyone they need

Thank you for the help! I have a few more questions if you don't mind me asking. Did you print out the application then sent it as a pdf? Also did you send the receipt of the $53 fee before you sent in the application or after and was it sent as a picture or pdf? When I was looking at the application I only found the Dale Mabry application, but I'm interested in the South shore program. Did you fill out the Dale Mabry application? And do you know what the GPA cutoff was for the semester you applied in? I know Summer is usually lower than the fall one. My last question is did you send in your high school transcript? If so, how? I'm sorry for bombarding you with all these questions.

I did print the application and filled it out manually (all 5 pages,) then scanned it along with the TEAS results and application receipt. I screen shot the receipt, saved it to my phone files then turned it into a pdf from a JPEG. 
They want everything sent together as a packet on pdf format. I scanned everything from my printer to my computer as one packet of 11 pages.
I did fill out the Dale Mabry application not sure if South shore has its own. 
I don’t know what the cut off was for Spring semester but last one, some of the girls got it with a 3.3.

About the high school transfers. Since I am a current HCC student, I didn’t have to because they had them since 2019. If you are not a HCC student, register first online with HCC to be a student then go to your high school

website and request them to be transferred; they do this relatively quickly. It all has to be done online/electronically and directly from your high school to [email protected]

 as photocopies of them are considered unofficial by HCC.

So,

make sure you register with HCC (if you are not a student)

 make sure all prerequisites are done before deadline for Fall program  (May 15th),

Nursing application (100% filled out), TEAS results and receipts are sent as a packet on PDF format before the deadline. 

High school Transcripts request made (My high school sent me an email letting me

know when they had been sent) and a couple of day later they showed up under my documents section as “received.” 

 And I appreciate you asking questions, I don’t mind answering and making this less scary.

Thank you for your help! I'm also working towards my AA and I should be finished in the Spring and I don't know if I should still send in my high school transcript or my college one (I go to HCC.) Did you still send in your high school transcript even though you've gone to HCC? Thank you for the help, I greatly appreciate it!

On the HCC app go to admission and registration/required transcripts and documents. Once you sign in you will see the documents you already have in there. Your high school transcripts should be there (I’m attaching a pic of mine so you see what to look for and a pic of my nursing application already “received”.) 
if your high school transcripts are showing under your documents you do not need to have them resent.

You are welcome, I’m glad I could be of help ?

Hello, it's been a month since the deadline for the HCC nursing program and I was wondering how all of it has been going? If you don't mind me asking, did they send acceptance emails out already?
