Is this the first interview where you go with a bunch of people and then get called back? I never made it to the second interview last spring, which is one-on-one. Good
SPC Student - I was pushed to the side last year for fall session for not having micro completed. I was in the same situation as you, but you will be put into the second pool which gets acceptance...
SBChewning, I'm so happy to help. I, myself, was in your position having 2 C's and when I learned from the advisor that I could re-take them at SPC because they weren't original credits earned from...
Did you study at HCC and receive the C there? SPC will allow you to retake a class you made a C in as long as it wasn't at their college. Try contacting advisors at SPC or PHCC if this is the case....
But you still have Micro to complete, right? All is not lost if you can make an A in micro and lab, you can push it up to a 3.5. Never say never, but you might be on the alternate list depending on...
Last spring the cut off was a 3.7, and I think they only chose 3 or 4 from the alternate list. Last fall the average GPA was a 3.9. Keeping my fingers crossed for
SWingate86 - you should hear back in about a month. I know, the waiting is the hardest part!! Tinkkey04 - sounds like you have a great plan. I put all my eggs in one basket, but will look at USF...
Just from my past experience - I applied for the 3rd time for fall session - first round letters go out around the end of March, beginning of April. You will probably get a letter stating that you're...
SPC Student - I have heard (and seen) that fall session is more competitive to get into, and last fall the average GPA of people that got in was a 3.9. My current GPA is a 3.89 and if they don't...
I am applying (yet again!) to SPC for fall 2010 and hopefully will not be rejected (again!). My GPA is extremely competitive now and I am hoping this time will be "it" for me. I already submitted my...
Thanks for the info, dp133! I'm glad you informed me of USF's cum GPA instead of just pre-req GPA. It's amazing the competition for these nursing programs! I'm hopeful for SPC, but now I am willing...
Acclratedchick - I was able to retake some classes this semester to boost my GPA up to a 3.89. If that doesn't get me in for fall, I don't know what will! For spring I'm going to take nutrition and...
UT is actually harder than the other three to get into. They only accept once per year, and only 12 spots. All nursing schools are extremely competitive, and it basically comes down to GPA. The...
LOL! Thanks, Lis4b!! I acquired food poisoning after trying to eat healthy at work - a salad of all things!! Still bummed that I missed the opportunity to
Unfortunately I was bedridden with food poisoning the day of the Northside/VA interviews....I would have liked to have the opportunity, but I was in no shape to even move to the front door. What was...
Oh boy....that makes me worried that they miscalculated your credits and GPA. Makes me wonder how many others they've done that to. I was told I'm #26, so I was right after you for picking....but...
I know. I am reading the previous posts and I am beginning to wonder how they truly score everyone for acceptance. I have all of my pre-reqs completed and am still an alternate. Keeping my fingers...
Most programs require at least a 2.7, but to be competitive or even have a chance of getting an acceptance letter you need at least a 3.2. Some colleges are so competitive that the average GPA of...
No, SPC does include residency as a factor. In fact, and advisor told me that if you are not a resident you are automatically pushed to the side because so many people
