Tidewater Community College Spring 2018

Published

Hey everyone! Upon reading some other nursing students post that applied last year to start TCCs nursing program this Spring 2017 I figured I would make one for us students applying for the spring 2018 start. I want to get into the evening/weekend cohort so I can stay with my young one during the day and then go to class when his dad comes home but I will be applying to all cohorts. I took chemistry at ODU and received a B and have also taken HS chemistry. Attended my open house session. I have A's in ENG 111&112. B in SDV 101. This semester I took A&P I, PSY 200 and PSY 235. I will most likely get a B in A&P and A's in both PSYs. I'm taking Micro over the summer and then A&P II and PHI 226 in the fall. Applications are due August 15th. I have not taken my HESI A2 yet I plan to do it at the end of July. I bought the book the school recommended for studying for it but have not studied it much yet I plan to once this semester is over. I am so nervous about applying. I've worked SO hard and I feel like it would be so devastating to not get in. I've read some other posts and I'm nervous about not having A&P II and PHI 226 completed by the time I apply. I hope they will look at my other grades and know I will do well in those classes too. I made this post so if other students find it we can encourage each other, answer each other's questions, and keep up with each others progess- after all we might be classmates in less than a year- might as well make friends now, am I right? :) anyhow, good luck to all of us!!!!

Day 2 and there was nothing in my mail either. I got a 95 on Hesi and all A's on prerequisites (AP II and PHI 226 in progress) plus I have a Bachelors. I know based on that I should be accepted but without confirmation one starts to wonder if I messed up on the application somehow. I'm really hoping I hear tomorrow.

Does anyone know or heard how the classes go for spring start? Like days, times, etc? I'm guessing it is what's online when you search for the courses but they have the classes offered different days, different times. I am interested into doing concurrent enrollment and I still need chemistry so trying to fit that into my schedule but orientation isn't until December and want to register for chem earlier than that lol

I'm in cohort 4 which starts in March. I'm also applying for the concurrent enrollment program. Based on the info in SIS, you can figure out which chemistry class will work with the schedule. As it stands, I will have to take a Wednesday lab with my lecture online as I would like to take it at the Chesapeake campus.

Also random question but I'm in the process of starting the long to do list and I'm confused about the drug testing process if anyone knows. Do we go to any facility whenever we want or do they assign us somewhere/certain times. The packet didn't seem to specify. Trying to knock stuff out early so I'm not stuck doing everything after orientation.
