St. John's River State College Nursing Fall 2017

[SunnyShalee]

I am applying to SJRSC this May for their Fall 2017 program. I was wondering with the new application no longer being a point system/ not having to have BOTH HESI and the pre-req's are you still applying with both to be looked at twice? My prerequisite's GPA is a 3.8 and one of the advisors says "you won't have a problem getting in at all!" BUT I have an 89,90,and 91 HESI scores which I know you need at least 90 in all three categories (I'm so close!!) to be looked at via the HESI route. Anyways, I don't want to take her word and be crazy disappointed if she's wrong (clearly, I'm still nervous despite her confidence) so should I retake the HESI? Are most applicants applying to be looked at twice in BOTH categories (HESI & GPA)? Would also love for this to be the a forum for the 2017 students to chat and bat around other questions too (as I noticed the other SJRSC forums are from years past)! :-)

I applied on Thursday and was told by the advisor they are reviewing all applications as they come in and will be letting everyone know by the first week of June. Good Luck!

WOW, That is great news!!!!

What campuses is everyone applying for?

I was told we would know in a week or 2 after the deadline is closed ... so within the first couple weeks of June for sure. A letter will be mailed to each applicant.

Also, i was told they actually recommend that you submit both your prerequisites and hesi scores... although if you only have one then that's okay.

Im so anxious

Me too! I hope it doesn't take too long! I submitted on my HESI scores but showed my unofficial transcripts just to show I have completed all my pre-reqs. My GPA is not competive. However I feel my pretty confident in my HESI scores.

Me too! My HESI is 94. Hopefully it's good enough to get me into one campus!

That's great! Hope we all get in.

I applied at the OP campus. I wasn't able to take the HESI in time for FSCJ that's why when I found out about SJR not having to have it, I applied with my prerequisites. My GPA is a 3.77 so I'm hoping it will be enough on it's own. The advisor I saw told me to apply without the HESI so that's why I went for it. I'm glad someone mentioned mailing a letter to your home, I've been watching the school email as well since it asked for that on the application.

I was also told there is a mandatory "boot camp" that is two days at the end of June for everyone who gets into the program. Just letting you ladies know what the advisor told me.

Good luck ladies!

I called yesterday. They said we will be notified by the third week in June via email. This is the first semester the are not mailing out letters. The boot camp days are June 28th and 29th. :)

I got a 94 on the HESI as well! So, was anyone else confused about the 3 HESI scores we needed to score at least a 90 on ? One is reading comprehensions, math, and then english language composite, but i noticed in paratheses the english language composite consists of reading comprehension... so... ??

and i check marked the box for either palatka or orange park. i wanted to do some research on the teachers... have any of yall heard anything good or bad about either campus ?
