SPC (St. Petersburg College) Fall 2014-2015 Hopefuls?

Published

Hello everyone!

This is my first post here, though I have been lurking for quite some time. I am currently finishing my last pre-requisite course (microbiology) this semester. I plan to apply in 20 days (but, who's counting?) for the nursing program which begins this fall at SPC. I was wondering if anyone else out there is planning to apply for the same admission bracket as I am. I figured we could wait out the tortuous process together! Good luck to all!

Hi I was wondering if you knew if SPC takes off points for attemping a class more then once. I know HCC does. Thank you.

If they do, they did not mention it to me when I met with the advisor at HEC. I would recommend checking with an advisor. Good luck!

I was really hoping to see more responses to this thread. I know there is tons of interest in SPC's nursing program. Maybe potential students just do not know about this forum! Anyway, still waiting...July 1st is a ways away.

I am a potential RN. I am taking my ethics class this summer. I am also taking a medical records class. I figure this is important. I didn't want to take microbiology or statistics online or in the summer. I was taking Stats last semester, and had to drop it. I was taking too much on. I am scheduled to take Microbiology in the fall. I don't think I am going to take stats till the next semester. I just can't take such a hard class with another class that's going to take so much of my time. I was told I could still apply with just not having my stats class completed. All other prereq's will be done before I apply. I have a good GPA. 3.7. It was 3.8 but my accounting class brought it down a bit. I am also working on the HIM program while I am waiting and as a backup plan. Though I have been told people can get into the RN program with a 3.5, and I know I can raise it by getting 2 A's in my classes back to a 3.8. I should be good to go. Who knows though. I am so nervous on this process. I just want to get into the program! I feel our pain lol.

No they do not take off for retaking a class. I retook one at university of Phoenix to get a higher gpa.
