Hello all,
I wanted to start a thread for those applying to HCC's Spring 2014 nursing program. I am a stay at home mom. I know its early but I wanted to get as much info as possible. The deadline isn't until 6/1. I'm a current HCC student. My pre-req GPA is 3.57 (all A's 1 B and 1 C ), I'm hoping that this is good enough to get me a spot in the program.
What is everyone elses GPA? I heard its lower for the Spring.
HIIIII EVERYONE!! Our first class is in just a few days. I hope everyone is prepared. With my wedding and moving to a new apartment, I really fell behind in reading. But am playing catch up. Thank god for being a CNA already. Really just have to worry about Clinical Calculations. Anyways, I have a question. Has anyone NOT ordered their badges yet???? I just got my last name changed, so I wanted to get badges with my new name on them, which I'm ordering tomorrow. I still have to change my name with the school, so I hope that won't affect the badge thing. I was just wondering though if anyone else was behind on that??Also, is anyone becoming a bit nervous now that the syllabus is up for our classes?? I'm already beginning to feel overwhelmed, and hope I'm not alone on this. Well, I hope NO ONE is nervous, but I doubt that. :/ Where are you, stress buddies??
Hi there, what do the syllabus look like your first week of class? How many chapters are on the agenda for the week? When do u get placed and begin internship in a hospital? I'm in my last semester before applying to the program. I'm very curious and would like to be prepared for anything and everything I can.
Thank u for sharing what you can :)
Hi jragghianti,
Its been a long break so im ready to get back to class and start the process. I was a little worried when i reviewed the sylabus and saw all the assignments,papers,volunteer hrs,lab hrs, and everything else we have too do this semester. Then i got a call from a freind that starts NP3 this semester and she gave me a pep talk and assured me that it will be okay (I needed that). She said as long as you set your priorities in advance and dont falll behind with assignments you will be good to go. Dont worry so much on what grade you get, ie. A, B, C, its all about the point system and getting to the magic #, each assignment is worth x# of points. Good luck everyone. This is what we've been waiting for, the time is here, "WE CAN DO THIS"!!! See you all on Wednesday....:)
I am at DM campus and we are all meeting tomorrow at 8:00am. First time she said in nursing lab but she never gave a specific room number or building number? Anyone know where we are supposed to meet? Thanks.
check you schedule on web advisor, it will have the classroom # on it. For the DM N/W class its in the Technology Building, Room 361.

The Dale Mabry Nursing Lab is in DTEC on the DM campus in Room 362. However, I am assuming this is the lab she wants us to meet in since it was not specified. This is for the DM AM/PM classes; I am not aware of other campuses.
Hope this helps..
See everyone in AM/PM DM tomorrow. I'll be the dude looking like the 'Stay Puft' marshmellow man in his scrubs.
PS: I just got confirmation that it is indeed Rm.362 on the 3rd floor.
Have fun in class today those of you going. I just got back and (while overwhelming) feel that I actually can do this. I think I made it out worse than it was -- it was actually quite enjoyable.
PS. jragghianti: I was the guy sitting next to you at our clinical instructor introduction (when we broke into small groups) this AM, and the guy standing in line at registration. I forgot to say "Hello" when I recognized your name on the sheet Karen passed around. I'll correct that mistake tomorrow and say howdy.
