Hi, I was wondering if anyone else has applied to the HCC LPN-RN transition program starting May 2012. I just received my letter in the mail yesterday and I can't wait to get started!! Hoping to connect with others who will be starting then too!

Congratulations dtex23!! Are you currently working? I am only working PRN at the moment and really need to brush up on some skills before school starts!

Our letters to accept a seat have to be in by March 2 so the wait shouldn't be too long. I have a friend who works at HCC and she made it sound like just about everyone who applied for the transition program got in one way or another.

My HawkNet profile also says the same thing about BSC1085. Not sure why either. As far as how many seats are available I really don't know but I am pretty sure it is the same amount from year to year. Maybe tomorrow they will give you a better in...

I have a friend that was an alternate and she and several other alternates did get into the program. Hang in there...with your GPA being a 3.0 I think you have a really good shot!!! I've started a new thread for LPN-RN transition but so far no one ...

I know the basic RN program has a fall start date but I was told I wouldn't hear anything before mid-March so maybe notifications will go out a little earlier. The waiting really stinks!!! Anyone else applying for the transition option?

Hi , Just wanted to let anyone applying to the LPN-RN transition program know that I received my acceptance letter in the mail today!! I never expected to get a response so early even though I having been checking my email every day!! I am so excit...

Hi, I am applying for the Aug. 2011 LPN-RN Bridge program and was wondering if there is anyone else out there applying also. I just finished my prereqs this semester and will be taking the TEAS test this month. Hopefully I will do well enough on ...

When I was dropping off paperwork I asked if we would be told at orientation and the lady told me that we would be. Then she just picked up some papers and looked through to my name and told me where I was set to go. It sounds like anyone livin...

Just found yesterday that I will be in the Brooksville LPN-RN transition class and not NPR. I was expecting NPR since it is so much closer to my house but I will go wherever I need to!! Are clinicals for North done at Brooksville Regional or Oakhil...

I got my acceptance letter for the LPN-RN Transition program beginning in August!!!!! I am so happy!!!! Just wanted to let everyone know that the letters are on the way!!!! Good luck to everyone!!!

"I know that this semester they are just looking at individual subject scores and not composite, but I was just curious?" I hadn't heard this info. Are they putting any higher weight on a particular individual subject score(s)? I haven't even recei...

Anyone else apply for this program? When I dropped off my application they told me we should be hearing something around the first week in July. I can't wait!!

Hi, Is anyone attending the LPN-RN bridge program starting this May? I am getting ready to turn in my application this week and I'm really looking forward to getting back to school. It's a whole lot of money but I have heard a lot of good things ab...

I will see what info I can get for you! I can only imagine how stressful moving AND starting school must be!

Is it true that if you test on the computer you receive your results right then? I hope so...I would hate to wait for those!!

I have to agree that complaining would just be a waste of time!

I did my clinicals at Kindred also. UCH LTAC is a lot different...I'm sure you will really like it!! And, if you are interested in critical care this is a great place to start!! You will learn a lot.

"Applicants who have passed the NCLEX and have an active license in another state may apply by endorsement." Yes, you can get your license from another state and then apply for your Fl license by endorsement as of now. When I spoke with someone a...

I would also recommend the Studygroup 101 notes...they are great! I would always read the suggested book material first. Good luck!

How much time did you get in training before you were on your own? Working float pool is tough and I would imagine for a new nurse it is even tougher. Hang in there...with time it will get easier!

Hi, I live in Hillsborough County (near the Pinellas line) and work PRN at a LTC facility in Pinellas making $23.50/hr (started as a new grad). I also work PRN at an ALF in Hillsborough making $20.00/hr. The pay is pretty good in LTC/ALF here in th...

Hi! Glad to hear the info about the hats!! I am trying to brush up on some med/surg but not doing too much else. I have been working mostly in LTC/ALF and need to refresh my mind about a lot! I did see the schedule for the class that started in F...

I didn't know about the nursing caps...hopefully they are not still wearing those! I have seen their new facility and it is really nice! I am SO excited to be starting soon!!

Congratulations on the new job!!! I was also considering LTAC (offered a job a few weeks ago) but decided to go back to school instead. There is no way that I can work FT and go to school. What certifications will you be getting? Also, what is ...
