St pete college fall 2013

Published

Hello,

I have read previous posts on here over the last few months regarding admission to SPC's AS Nursing program. I applied for the fall 2013 semester. Are there any applicants out there who also applied? I am playing the waiting game. Do any previous applicants know how long it takes to hear if you are accepted or not, once the application window closes? Thank you:)

Grrr. I guess I'll distract myself by trying to learn/figure out Evernote.

Anything else interesting come out of your visit to the counselor?

Edited to add: Does anyone have any info about where the clinical sites for Nursing I might be?

Waiting 'till last minute ... that's not nice. Does anyone know how many applicants they have?

Figures they would wait until the 1st of July. They do it intentionally in my opinion so that people only have 1 day to call them up and vent their fustrations out before they go on the 4th of July break. At that point, a week later after the instructors return on monday, the tornado will already done it's damage and they can say "we are sorry, there's always next semester"

Highwaygirl, I found out that most of the BSN class requirements are waived if you have a previous degree (BA). I was secretly hoping she would tell me if I made it or the average GPA this semester. Man! I was really hoping they would tell us at least by Friday so we would have the weekend to celebrate.

I don't know anything about the clinical locations :( I wish that I did.

From what I read on here, the clinicals are at Mortan Plant, Mease Dunedin, St Anthonys and I believe Tampa General or Northside.

I decided to get crafty and checked the Fall schedule on MySPC for the clinical sites listed for Nursing II, III, and IV:

Nursing II - Morton Plant Mease Countryside and Morton Plant Mease Clearwater

Nursing III - TBA, Bay Pines Medical Center, St. Petersburg General, St. Joseph's, St. Anthony's

Nursing IV - Morton Plant Mease Countryside, Morton Plant Mease Clearwater, Morton Plant Mease Dunedin, St. Petersburg General

Not that this means anything specific for Nursing I clinical sites, but I thought it was interesting to see where the school has partnerships.

Hi everyone! I am new to this site and am also desperately waiting for tomorrow's emails. I saw that some one posted about vaccines. How do I find out the testing and blood work that the nursing program requires? I would like to get the background screening, fingerprinting and medical stuff out of the way as soon as possible. Does anyone know if we will have a nursing orientation to give us all this info? Thanks!

Hi Melody,

Yes, I believe the orientation dates and times will be included in your acceptance email. That is where you will receive all the information on required vaccines and the required background check. At least that's what I've been told.

Good luck tomorrow!

Just want to let you know the clinical sites for Level 1 are generally not the same as the other levels. Level 1 focuses on assessment and basic nursing skills, so generally its the rehab centers level 1 gets stuck with. Schedule to pick from are as follows: Northside, St Anthonys Rehab, HealthSouth Rehab, Morton Plant Rehab. Night classes have the additional option of Baypines VA rehab. Good luck everyone! I just graduated and SPC has a wonderful program that prepares you well for the NCLEX!!
