PHSC Nursing Hopefuls - Fall 2016

[meltominoire, BSN, RN]

Hey, PHSC students!

When I applied for both the generic RN and LPN program (I got into LPN), we had an interactive forum here and it really helped ease some tension and answer some questions. It also helped show where we stood amongst our peers. The next post on this forum will show the rankings as well as the 'formula' for admission. Happy posting.

The Point of This Forum

1) Which program you're applying for (LPN, RN, LPN-RN bridge).

2) Post your stats; prerequisite GPA, TEAS score, residency (Hernando/Pasco/etc.)

3) Have fun and meet potential peers.

Fall applications are due May 30th and the board will meet around mid-June. Letters will be sent out early in July.

This is a good site to check your PHSC prerequisite GPA since it doesn't include a v-- plus or minus system. --v

FINDING YOUR SCORE . . .

It's divided into three categories. Add up your points and that is where you stand amongst your peers.

1) Prerequisite GPA/4.0 = __%

a) __% x.45 = points

2) TEAS score x .5 = points

3) Living in Pasco or Hernando = 5 points

I've applied for the RN program at npr campus. My prerequsite gpa is 4.0, my teas score is 78.8. I'm not sure if I'm considered a resident for the program purposes. I've had my Florida license for 8 months and still have to pay tuition as a non resident because it hasn't been a year yet.
