Human Factors
I came in for a full stop [and] landed at approximately 65 KIAS in a nose wheel attitude and quickly started to skid toward the left. The nose started to wheelbarrow and I applied the brakes which made the plane impossible to control. The plane veered off the runway and into the grass. It ended up 180 degrees in the grass. [Neither] the plane's prop nor wings ever hit the ground. The Tower immediately radioed to check on me. I was shaken but fine. The crash team was dispatched. I was able to throttle up and exit the grass onto the runway after the crash team had evaluated the undercarriage of the plane. [A] Mechanic looked over the plane and found that it was safe to fly. I flew it back to [home base] with an instructor 2 hours later. The plane was never grounded by the airport or the mechanic.
Student pilot in a PA28 reported landing on the nose gear; losing control; and departing the runway. No damage reported.
