    I spoke to someone by email and she told me last week that the Committee met and she would be mailing out letters last week. Well I didn't receive a letter so I emailed her again last week and she...

    Since I know future nursing applicants will research this thread just as all of us on this thread have read the discussions from former applicants, I want to give some advice to anyone who may have...

    Yes College Algebra is offered at HCC online. I took it a year ago online and ended up with a B because I was taking other classes. If I would have had more time with it I would have made an A. The...

    KKJA8855 replied to KKJA8855's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thank you Gradius, I appreciate your concern and looking out for me. My intention is to get only my LPN at Galen then transfer to HCC and do the bridge program to RN. I will not officially enroll...

    KKJA8855 replied to KKJA8855's topic in Florida Nursing

    Also just to add, I've learned the hard way that USF does not accept HCC's science courses because at HCC they are taken on the 1000-level rather than USF's 2000-level. So I'll be re-taking A&P...

    Thank you both for the information. I am actually only doing LPN at Galen due to my daytime work schedule then plan on doing RN bridge at HCC then BSN at USF. I appreciate your responses and heads...

    Thank you for the information, I will look into that! If my appeal is not accepted I am planning on applying for Fall-13 start. With a 3.57 GPA I think I will just make it but if not, LPN route is a...

    I noticed a couple of you that applied to HCC also applied to SPC nursing. I am considering doing that but was wondering if you could let me know how their process goes. Is it similar to HCC? I see...

    Plant City Campus is located off of Park Road in Plant City. The campus is small and easy to maneuver through. When you exit from I-4 go left onto Park Rd at the light then follow Park Rd for about...

    Gradius, I feel your pain my friend! Good luck with your appeal. Keep us posted on how it turns out. I turned in my appeal yesterday and the Advisor told me I should hear something by mid-October....

    From what I've read from other posts, you have to go to the Ybor campus to get fingerprinted unless something changed from last semester to this

    KKJA8855 replied to Rachanee's topic in Florida Nursing

    Just dropped off my appeal letter! I gave plenty of good evidence supporting the fact that it was HCC's error in the evaluation of my transcripts and wrote a very convincing letter so hopefully I'll...

    KKJA8855 replied to Rachanee's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thanks! Maybe I found a loop-hole!? LOL I guess my question is not if they accept the higher level courses, it's whether they'll accept them over the lower level courses from HCC if you have taken...

    KKJA8855 replied to Rachanee's topic in Florida Nursing

    Kinda off topic but does anyone know if they'll accept the 2000-level science classes as well? For example, A&P is a pre-req and the class that HCC offers is BSC-1085, whereas other colleges...

    KKJA8855 replied to Rachanee's topic in Florida Nursing

    My experience with HCC is that they have not always been forthcoming with any information that you need. So I'd say just wait it out. Like others mentioned previously, telling us early Oct may just...

    KKJA8855 replied to Rachanee's topic in Florida Nursing

    Ok so I just called the Nursing department and spoke with an assistant and they told me letters will be sent out in late September/early October. That's pretty late compared to previous years...I'm...

    Oh wow, they require us to carry our own health insurance or they suggest it and if we don't, then we practice at our own risk? They don't cover us under their own clinical policy and that becomes...
