The alternate list is still great! Keep your chin up;)

Well, practicing my patience has finally paid off! I was accepted into the fall nursing program!!!!

Check your emails!!!!! I'm in!!!!!

Congratulations, RN! I will certainly be staying in town, so that is great news. Thanks again for the information!

Thanks! I would certainly like to pick your brain about things! I appreciate your willingness to reach out to us! Have you taken the NCLEX yet?

Yes, it seems i suddenly am receiving a ridiculous number of emails that look like they could be from TCC. I was ready to throw my phone in the garbage earlier for all of email alearts I was getting. Glad it's not just me loosing it over here!

Well, that's not exactly the news I was looking for... I guess I will just need to get a new hobby until we find out!

From what I understand it's nearly impossible to get in contact with Ms. Farley right now. I remember sitting in her office when I first came to TCC to begin this adventure and her phone was ringing off the hook for our entire conversation. Don't wor...

Yes. That's the place. I keep checking my phone. Nothing yet...

Can't wait!

Awesome!!!!

How did you hear?!?! That's exciting!

YES! I have my family committed to helping out with the kids. Staying focused on "campus" is going to help us so much! I keep checking the thread everyday wondering if anyone has heard anything yet! I am ready to pick up some Caribbean Blue scrubs!

I would say you need to remain committed to reading! Read those books and you should make it through. It will be a challenge- but you can do it! :)

Which TCC?

Gotcha. I looked at your schools website about the HESI and nowhere did a see a minimum requirement for test scores. So take a deep breath. Your GPA should give them a good idea about your intelligence and work ethic. Good luck!

Ah! Sorry, there are a lot of TCCs out there. I can't speak for the requirements of your TCC, but for ours you need at 75% on each subtest for entry into program. Did you use any particular study guide? Which section gave you the most trouble?

Is this for Tallahassee Community College?

Well then, I believe you need a lite background to understand my excitement level. My father was diagnosed with renal failure during my sophomore year of college. He was put on a transplant list and after fighting for his cause was denied due to his ...

I have been waiting for this moment for a decade. I know that I am overly excited, but I would say I have earned it. Besides, I believe nurses above all should be passionate about nursing. I would say our attitudes are exactly what this field needs. ...

Our application deadline wasn't until May 11th! Four long weeks left... It's got my stomach in knots! Good luck to you!!

I know the feeling! I cannot wait to see what happens. I am trying not to get too excited about TCC-related emails until at least June 1st. "Try" is the opperative word in that sentence!

In my opinion the Reading Comp portion of the HESI is very wonky! 146 is a great score! My friend is applying to Chipola for the fall as well. She knows someone who went through that program and enjoyed it very much. Good luck to you either way! :)

From what I have seen and heard in the past they almost NEVER take the entire 8 week period. Usually closer to 6 weeks. The end of June would be the absolute latest.

Thanks all for a great place to come together and support each other. This is a crazy journey! It's nice to have good people along the way!!
