SJRCC (Orange Park/Palatka) Information

U.S.A. Florida

Hi I am currently enrolled at FSCJ and I will hopefully be applying to a nursing program in Fall 2010. I have looked at the requirements at SJRCC to apply to the nursing program and they are somewhat similar to FSCJ but as everyone knows they give priority to Duval and Nassau counties and I live in O. P. I see that May of 2010 is the last time that they will accept scores from the NET testing and then begin to accept scores for the HESI testing. Has anyone taken the HESI? I also see that there is a course called Professions of Caring which I guess is a class that is not required but may be informative about different health care careers. Is this a class offered online or is it on campus? Has anyone taken this class? Would you say that most of the nursing applicants have taken this class before applying? Also how many students do they take a sememster? Are the applicants accepted based on the number of students that graduated from the previous class? I would like to know if anyone has any insight about the SJRCC program. Please and Thank You for all the information that you are able to provide. :D

I applied for summer '10. My GPA is 3.62 with 142.5 points. Not sure if it will be good enough.

I applied with 142 points and a GPA of 3.2 for summer 2010. I did take the NET. I applied last time and was ranked in the 1st category, but I applied last time with only 129 points so that wasn't enough to make the cut. It is kind of confusing but I think that is how they figure it out.

When I called and spoke with the "nursing counselor" she told me that they look strictly at GPA's. They pull from category 1 first. If there aren't enough applicants to fill the 36 spots, they then go to category 2 and so on. She did tell me the only time the points come into play is if two applicants are tied with a GPA for the final spot. Does that make sense? LOL

Another interesting note: She told me the HESI is simply pass or fail! I had no idea...
