Hi Tampa students! I'm attending Hillsborough Community College. I just finished my last prereqs this week, and should begin the Nursing Program in August. I'm waiting to find out my grade for A&P2... if I got an A, I'll have a 4.0 and then I'll be sure to get in. Got my fingers crossed!!!

I go to HCC too!!! What campus are you in? And, let me tell you, with a 4.0 GPA, it's more than likely, in fact, an almost ABSOLUTE possibility that you WILL be accepted and I'll probably see you around!!! :D God bless!!!!!

Hi Mave! I took my prereqs at the Brandon campus. I haven't decided yet if I want to be at Dale Mabry or Plant City for the Nursing classes. Dale Mabry is so much nicer, but I live closer to Plant City. What about you??

I'm starting in January at St. Pete College. It's coming sooooo fast!

I start the nursing program at HCC Plant City in 3 weeks! I'm so excited and nervous at the same time. My GPA was a 3.89. My friend had a 3.6 and she was accepted. I prefer the Plant City campus over the Dale Mabry campus for many reasons. 1: The traffic at Dale Mabry is HORRIBLE. 2: At Plant City, the people just seem nicer in general. 3: The campus is small and more personal.

Anyway... good luck with the prereqs! :)

Who'd you have for A&P? I took prereqs in Brandon also and my professor was Ehringer. He was pretty good.

Specializes in Med-Surg.

I'm a West Coaster. (Going online RN BSN through Florida Hospital).

Good luck to you all.

Congrats on starting at Plant City, Lauren! I ended up getting a "B" in AP2, so I'll be applying with a 3.8 GPA. Hopefully that will be good enough. I agree with you about Plant City being more friendly... I took a few classes there. I'm going to put PC as my first choice on my app. At Brandon, I had Dr. Brannon for AP1 and Micro, and Ormrod for AP2. Good luck with your classes!!! CHeck back and let me know how it is, OK?

:uhoh21: Does anyone know if on the first day of nursing classes we have to wear our nursing school uniforms? Dumb question, but I would like to know. Thanks!!!!!:)
