Tidewater Community College - Spring 2016 Applicants

od2225 · Mar 3, 2016

Thank you @jlm1993 - some of the students in my cohort purchased the bundle as it does offer savings compared to purchasing the individual components. What we discovered is that purchasing directly through Wolters Kluwer is also an option that may offer savings.

Hi all I am new to this forum but have been stalking it for a while. I just applied to TCC for Fall 2016 admission and was wondering if there was a thread for it yet? If not I will start one! Well I started one it's called [h=1]Tidewater Community College Nursing Hopefuls Fall 2016[/h]

Hello! I have a BS in biology from ODU at a gpa of 3.1. I have all my prerequisites completed except for 2, ethics and developmental psych. I do not have all A's in my science courses or prerequisites. I got a 87 on my HESI. I hope this is good enough to receive an acceptance letter to TCC. I want this so bad!

I have heard that the HESI score and the science courses are the things they look at the most.

I want this so bad! Good luck to everyone!

Good luck @Nurse__Mindy !! I was accepted with 89% on the HESI, and I had A's in anatomy and micro (but I know some people did not have A's in all of the sciences who were accepted)! I had not finished anatomy 2 when I was accepted, and I had a 3.7 or 3.8 GPA. I know the waiting game is hard!!!

Hi @Brimurph2009 sorry for this late reply. I do not want to speak for my classmates, but I don't think they would mind me telling you that some of them are working full time. I am in the evening/weekend cohort and for me, I can't begin to imagine working 8-4 or a similar work schedule and then doing an evening class 5-10 (not to mention having families, adequate study time, and we have clinicals all day Saturday). I have the utmost respect for the students in the program who do work full time. Good luck with reapplying and completing your other applications!!! :)

I'm doing the same set up with cutting back on the days I work as well. One more week!!

I'm so darn nervous!

Hello everyone...I am looking for anyone who is currently in the evening/weekend program. I am set to start the med/surg class in May.

Hey Butler8076, My name is Brittney and I am in the evening/weekend program. Are you new to the program? Can't wait to meet someone new. We are a fun bunch

Butler8076 · Apr 24, 2016

Hello Brittney. My name is Cherylaine. Yes I am new to the program. I am a LPN so I will just be starting this semester. I'm excited, but nervous since I'm the new kid. How have things been going? Are clinicals just on Saturdays? Are they all day clinicals?
