  1. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Hi!! If you received all the vaccines and can provide documentation then you do not need the titers!! ?
  2. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Hi! Shoes must be ALL white including the logo, laces, stitching, and everything. I recommend getting something comfy! I got sketchers... they’re not the prettiest but they are definitely worth it.
  3. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    If you guys are using what we used last semester, then unfortunately none of those are the same. We used a different company, Elsevier!
  4. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Hey! I started the program in Spring and we had just switched to the company Elsevier rather than Pearson. So I’m not sure what company they will be using for fall 2020! But congratulations on finishing!! ?I wish you the best of luck!!
  5. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Hi! Yes! I recommend buying at least one set of all 4 levels. You just CANNOT lose them! You MUST wear your badge to the hospital, if you forget it at home you will be sent home!! It’s very strict. Some people bought multiple sets to keep in the car ...
  6. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    As far as uniforms go, I would definitely buy at LEAST one set. I guarantee you will need to wear them at least once, even if it is online. Maybe buy 1 for now and wait to buy more until you find out more information! ?
  7. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    I can only talk from my experience with cohort 2. But I don’t think the online transition made the lectures necessarily harder.. I think it was just different! It took a lot of self motivation and learning your own study techniques! The hardest part ...
  8. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    My pre-requisite GPA was a 3.4, I believe. I have heard that less people apply for Spring, so it is usually a lower cutoff!
  9. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Great question! There are still many unknowns. I personally feel that some of our lectures many be online while important labs and things will be on campus in the simulation lab. I’m also unsure what is going to happen with clinicals. Having to end m...
  10. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Uniforms are required for lectures as well. You are able to wear a plain white scrub top, embroidered scrub top, or an HCC nursing association t-shirt which can be purchased for $20 from the nursing association directly!! You have to basically wear t...
  11. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    I would recommend not ordering uniforms yet! They will give you more information at orientation. They require specific embroidered uniforms from a certain company for clinicals!!
  12. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    I want to say somewhere around 25. I believe we had about 25 people in our cohort!
  13. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Hey! Don’t give up. I was alternate number 19 last semester and still got accepted. There is always a chance! And they are very particular in the way that they calculate their GPA. Hang in there!
  14. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Congratulations to everyone who got accepted!! And for those that didn’t, please don’t give up. It took me several try’s before I was finally accepted. It’s well worth the wait. ❤️ Also, for those asking about trading cohorts, last semester we were t...

    I’m not sure about the early morning cohort. But for the afternoon cohort, we had class Monday’s from 1-5, Tuesdays 9-11 and 12-2 and then Clinicals were either on Wednesday or Friday from 6:30-2:30pm- depending on your hospital assignment.
  16. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Oh okay, yes!! Cohort 1 classes start at like 7am, I believe! Cohort 2 started at 9am! It was just a couple hours earlier, depending on the day.
  17. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Hey girl! Can I ask which cohort she was in? And when did she start? I’m in cohort 2, which is dale Mabry morning/afternoon, so IDK if she was in the same one!! But I loved my cohort instructor!!
  18. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    You are correct! They do not allow you have your nails polished at clinicals or in the lab. It is not worth it to get your nails done during school, trust me LOL.
  19. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Yes ma’am! I was alternate #19 with a 3.34 and still got accepted!
  20. There is always a chance of getting accepted. The least they can say is no!! I can’t tell you what this springs cut off will be, but I can tell you I got accepted with a 3.34 pre-requisite GPA. Don’t give up! Good Luck!
  21. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    I know it’s hard not to check every 5 seconds, but I promise you all will receive an email when they send out letters. I believe those that get put on the waitlist get their letters first and then everyone else. But it’s all within minutes. Good luck...
  22. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Great question! In semester one, ALL cohorts go to clinicals only 1 day a week. Last semester, it was either Wednesday or Friday. Don’t go by what the registration says, that just reflected all cohorts.. that was confusing to us as well!! ?
  23. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    I am currently in the nursing program at HCC, the school will automatically register you for classes after orientation!!
  24. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Unfortunately those are all from a different publisher than what we used! Unless if they change the curriculum again, I strongly recommend buying the bundle. I found it super helpful to have both physical and online copies of each textbook as well as...
  25. Fall 2020 Hillsborough Community College

    Yes!! We were the first “class” of nursing students to use this brand new curriculum at HCC. We were basically told that it is required to buy the bundle. It comes with online access and physical textbooks. With purchasing the bundle, you spend the $...
