I was just wondering if there were any PHCC applicants out there just waiting for June/July, and what were your NET scores like? I guess I am trying to get a feel for what the "competition" is like?
Is anybody a new student at PHCC either North or West Campus? What are your feelings about the program? Any regrets or thinking you would have rather gone somewhere else?
I just took the NET on Friday and am debating if I need to retest; got a 97 on math and 73 on comp and 85 on written expression. I put in the app for North and West just to see if I can get on the alternate list; I doubt I will be getting in this go around since it is my first time applying but gotta start somewhere.
I know, me too. I was really looking forward to knowing sooner than later. I am trying to get help paying for school and more importantly daycare for my two babies but need an acceptance letter to get much more. I got the pell grant but barely enough to pay for school, let alone anything else. I was going to try the WIA thing at Career Central. I'm still waiting to hear about PHCC's scholarships. The daycare grant doesn't come out until we start the program in August and only pays at most $750 a semester towards childcare (that's a drop in the bucket).
Augghhh. I really hate waiting. I'm a planner and want to know what my life is going to be in just over 2 months!!! LOL
*** If anyone knows any secret money tricks, Please let me know. I don't qualify for DCF help because I have Food but not Cash assistance and I don't qualify for CDS help because I will be in school not at work... I am sure it'll work out but if you know something I don't I would REALLY appreciate it.
I have heard about Career Central, but not too much else. I do not have any kids so I have no info about childcare. Sorry! I have talked with financial aid and they advised me to apply for scholarships. I do not know how I can apply for something when I am not even sure if I will be accepted in to the program. I did it ayway, but have not heard anything. I guess it will be loans for me if I get in.
Hi I am new to the site and to the school i just got an application to enter the RN program. Congratulations on all of you who are waiting to be called and good luck!! Just wanted to know if that NET test is hard is there any study guides to prepare for it??? I also work are there any classes at night ??? for the pre req??? any info would be great
this program requires submission of valid placement test scores (sat/act/fcelpt).
this program requires an official score report for the registered nursing - nursing entrance test (net), (you get the study guide at the school bookstore for about $30 bucks, or you can have mine if you want it.)
prerequisite classes (listed below) completed with a grade of "c" or higher:
enc 1101.....english composition i .....3 credit hours
hun 2201.....science of human nutrition .....3 credit hours
psy 1012....intro to psychology ....3 credit hours
the upcoming semester is 8/25 - 12/13 and the night schedules (i only included the classes after 5pm since you said you work days) are listed below for all pre-reqs. some are available online. the first column is the time of the class, the second is the day(s) of the class (r is thursday), and the third is the campus (ec is dade city, wc is new port richey, nc is brooksville and sh is spring hill)

anyways, lynn, the net is not hard at all but you really do need to focus on everything the study guide includes. the first time around i got in the 60s on my reading and writing with a total composite in the 70s and the second time (after studying extensively) i got in the high 80s on reading writing and 100 on math, putting me in the 90s for a total. they place you by your score so studying is vital to getting in.
This is the only thread I have found for PHCC. I have applied for the RN program for this fall. I was just curious if anyone has received a letter yet?
FYI: Also, the pre-reqs for Jan '09 admission to the RN and bridge programs changed a bit. In the generic Rn program (2 yr) Microcomputer applications has replaced English Comp I. It is another course I SHOULD have done this summer just in case I don't get in this fall!
I called PHCC (west campus) yesterday to ask about the RN acceptance letters for the fall. Admissions office said they would "hopefully" be sent out by the end of this week. I am going crazy waiting for my letter. I just want to know one way or the other. Good luck to everone waiting for a letter. Hopefully by at least next week we will all know our fate.
I have a friend who said she spoke with the West campus (operator) and was told there was a delay in the letters and they won't go out for another couple weeks! But when I called, I spoke with a guy (in admissions) who said they were working on them & we should receive them no later than next week. Crazy!!
im soooooooo stressed waiting for a yes or no from phcc west campus for aug. i really hope they don't give priority to people who have applied previously. i don't think that is the case, but you never know. i don't know when we are suppose to get our letters but the suspense is killing me!!!! hope to see ya all there in Aug!
it really stinks they added two classes to the rn program. now if i don't get in in Aug i have to wait another yr to apply b/c those two classes i will have to take in the fall. .
Good luck to everone waiting for a letter. Hopefully by at least next week we will all know our fate.
But when I called, I spoke with a guy (in admissions) who said they were working on them & we should receive them no later than next week. Crazy!!
