Georgia College, Milledgeville GA. BSN program (attended from 1987-1990)
Applied and accepted on first try. Had previous bachelors from University of Alabama(1985), so I am sure that helped.
It seems to me the schools today are much more competative and GPA's are important. I graduated from Alabama with a 2.8GPA.
Sorry if this is not helpful, nursing schools are a different creature than years ago.

I'm a senior at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (BSN/RN). Students with a 3.31 and above were admitted in fall of 2005. The GPA changes every semester. I think that they accept about 100 students each semester, about 70 didn't make it the semester I got in. It was so competitive that when we finally got into the major, alot of us had a hard time forming study groups with one another because of the earlier competition.
