I thought I would start a thread for those of us applying to HCC's Spring 2013 nursing program. I am a Veterinary Technician/stay at home mom. I'm gathering everything for my application and hoping to drop it off at HCC soon. The deadline isn't until 6/1 but they recommend turning it in at least 30 days in advance. I'm a current HCC student. I was planning on applying for Fall this year, but am now expecting a little girl to arrive in July so spring it is! My pre-req GPA is 3.86 (all A's and 1 B), I'm hoping that this is good enough to get me a spot in the program for DM evening classes. Good luck to all!
Hi everyone I'm new and I'm transferring to HCC this semester coming up but plan on apply to the rn program as soon as I finish all the pre-reqs cause I'm coming from PHCC and their arnt that many there. How is HCC? Any recommendations on teachers to take for the pre-reqs?
Hello..I took ****** ******* for Human Anatomy and Physiology I and II and I walked out of both classes and the labs with A's..she's straightforward and her tests are from the study guides that she provides..from other students who took A & P some have said they didn't do many dissections but this teacher does plenty..It's a great learning experience..as far as campuses..personally I loved Southshore only because its new not as crowded and no smoking on campus..hope this helps!

so is anyone else going in with a 3.52? Im very nervous to know the average gpa for the spring2013...:uhoh21:
Yes, 3.52 here. Not everyone can have a 4.0 and I'm sure the Admissions committee knows that. Last Spring (2012) term the average GPA was a 3.4? I think I read. Thank god Spring term's floor GPA is less than Fall's, or I would have been screwed I think. :)
If anything I am nervous about the Campus assignments, if nothing else since the 4.0 people will get first dibs and they will work backwards. If I don't get the one I applied for I am not certain how I will be able to enroll. :\
thank you for the vote of confidence! I am PRAYING you are right!
I will guess you meant me? lol. Spmomof4, you have a 3.76, you should be staring at the words "Nursing School Denial" and laughing in its face. :) In other words, you have nothing to worry about.
I have a 3.66, and am applying for DM days. I'm taking the rest of the prereqs for USF's BSN program now. I spoke with someone at HCC regarding the my documents section, and why it indicates that prereqs, high school transcripts, and HCC application haven't been received. They told me it's a glitch or error with the portal.

By glitch or error, that's comforting... I hope they're right. It makes no sense that some of the documents (e.g. HS transcript) would not show up when I sent it in the same packet with the Nursing app... which has been shown as received.
Just got caught up by reading the last half of the thread and it it good to meet you all. I also hope to make it into the Spring 2013 program. The wait to find out is killing me! The advisor I spoke with when I turned in my nursing application told me we should hear something in September. I can't believe it will take that long. Has anyone heard anything different?

September was what was the case with the applicants for Spring 2012, at least according to the Allnurses thread for it, so it's to be expected more than likely. I think I did see one person mention getting a response in July but perhaps that was a fluke?
