SPC Spring 2021 Applicants

Published

Hello everyone! I figured I'd get a thread going for those of us who are going to apply for the Spring 2021 nursing at St Pete College. I am currently taking MCB2010 and MCB2010L and Stats for the Summer semester. I applied for the fall application with a 3.7 GPA, but obviously didn't have all 30 points for the courses. I knew fall was a long shot, so here's to staying the course and continuing on towards the dream! Let's connect with each other and support each other, as we are all on the same journey! I am newer to the Clearwater area, and always looking for additional study buddies or friends. My bf and I are both applying for Spring. I love creating helpful study guides, graphics, etc. I'm also a hairstylist who only works weddings, so Covid has made it harder to work and "free" time has increased, more time for studying! I hope y'all are well, and I look forward to chatting with everyone about our goals and just generally supporting each other during the big wait!

Thank you! It won’t allow me to edit it tho ?

 I think there's a limited time frame to edit your post (kinda odd ik). Someone might come censor it as some point. Also I hope I didn't come across as like bossy or anything.... I just had that happen to me a few posts ago and wanted to make you aware. Too just incase you came back on and saw your post censored or edited. ? 

Really looking forward to officially meeting/ seeing you and everyone else on Tuesdayyy!!

I'm slightly paranoid that my fingerprints aren't approved yet. Not because I have anything to be worried about, but because I just want them to be all ready LOL. Also, I may have Covid ? (waiting on my test results) and being sick is just making everything else 10 times more anxiety ridden LOL.

Just wondering if any of you would share, what are you going to be doing as far as work goes?  

I plan on continuing my current job as a wedding hairstylist, while also applying for PT or PRN positions in the hospital.

Hope you will pass successfully!

@MaNixon oh no hunny I know you were only being helpful! And I believe you can’t edit your post if you quote someone. I’m counting down I can’t wait to meet you all as well!

@Kari Shimer that is scary ? I hope you get better soon OMG. But you have your nurse mom so I’m sure she knows all the tips on how to get better! I’ll pray for you ?

@jasonlynn I was going to apply for a hospital after we’re done with Level 1. Preferably a Baycare hospital but any one will do!

My Covid test was negative! Thank goodness. I really think I have the flu. It’s been almost a week and I still have low grade temp and horrible cough. I’m feeling better than I had been though. Still waiting for my fingerprints to be approved, and my drug screen hasn’t been uploaded into castle branch yet. I know I have nothing to worry about with either, but I’m so ready for them to be all clear and in the system LOL. I found a FB group for all level SPC nursing students. It seems helpful, but would love to have all of us level 1s together!

Awesome thank you 

Hey Everyone,

 Would anyone who has completed the drug screening happening to know what kind of sample they will be taking? Is it a urine drug test?

It's  a urine test, you need to pee to the plastic cup. 

How was the process for you? long waiting time on results? Did labcorp have to watch you urine? (gross)
