Hello all HCC Fall 2011 hopefuls! I have been following the Fall 2010 and Spring 2011 threads and thought maybe it was time to start Fall 2011 now that the application process has started. I just...
Yes, this same question was posted on previous posts from prior applicant classes. The response they received from MF was that the "needed asap" was something for HCC internally and will remain that...
I think you're right Sandm55 that it's never a bad thing to have more then they asked for. A few months ago I read over everything and read that the transition program applicants would have to have...
Hi Psstoops, I didn't turn my ID in either. I read over everything again and I think the ID request was listed under the transitional program and it was a request for your LPN ID. I didn't see...
I don't think they have an application fee, which is nice. I just looked recently after you posted that you were applying there as well and think I remember that there was no fee. FYI - I sent an...
That doesn't sound right, 3.5 and a snowball's chance??? I'm not so sure you should listen to this person, sounds like a bubble busting, dream sucker! Maybe that counselor sees so many ppl trying to...
Yeah, I did a deep dive into the HCC site after I replied to your post and found the pdf file you posted...took some searching but finally found it. Why do they have so many different places that...
Oh no! Don't give up though! Galen will be VERY expensive and if you plan on going on to a BSN or MSN, then you will be forced to stay with high-priced private programs since USF will not take a...
Welcome Nurse-H! I've been on vacation this week and have spent WAY too much time on this board reading all the past HCC roll call threads. I read that a 3.1 was accepted for the Spring 2010 term...
Love78, Don't listen to the admissions person, if you are interested in the St. Pete program, then apply! All they can do is say no. I know Pasco also gives priority to Pasco Co residents but I'm...
Oh, good to know about the acceptance letter coming in March! I didn't expect it would be that soon. I've been meaning to go through that thread completely and seen when people received their...
Hi Sandm55, I asked some of the same questions on another thread and got some answers you may be interested in. There was a lot of back and forth, so I'm just posting the link below instead of...
Sandm55, That does stink! I hate that some of these rules are not known until it's too late. Well, good luck to you! Also, by my calculations, since babynurse finished the program this term, then...
Great information, thank you! I have been debating if I should quit my current job (which pays very well but is not in health care) to get a part time tech job once I get through NP1 or NP2 so I can...
Hello Babynurse! Thanks for your insight and congratulations on finishing the program!!! I have more questions for you!!! We didn't have the option of 1st, 2nd or 3rd on our applications, we were...
Hello Kiki! I too was not the best of students early on and wondered if I would do well. Although I don't feel like my "memory" skills are as sharp, I think my "focus" skills are MUCH better! I was...
Hello and welcome! When did you drop algebra? I had a very rocky start many years ago and dropped English twice but they didn't say anything about a deduction, in fact, she said since those...
Thanks PERSGIRL! I ordered three of the books mentioned on here to get me started. I decide I'm going to take this upcoming spring term off from any classes and just focus on reading and preparing...
Hello jpearsonrn! Welcome to allnurses. To connect with wound care nurses go to the "specialty tab" under the allnurses logo then click on "Nursing Specialties". On that page go to the very bottom...
"and this just chapped my a$$!" Love it! First of all, congratulations on getting an A in the class and never having to deal with this guy again! Not only did you win the battle but also the war!...
Hmmm, hard to say which state is better then others but I can at least share the basics for my area of Florida (just my city not the entire state). My local 4 yr university requires the following: *...
