I have a friend who told me she got in with a 2.9 .. I'm doing psychology my bachelors degree. I saw something on the UM site that confused me. It said you needed licensure in your field for your bachelor's depending on what field it is from. That isn't exactly how it was stated but I know it was something along those lines. Is this true? because or me to have licensure in psychology I would have to have graduated from a masters program which is not my aim. Any info on this ice? Btw Ice can you give me any advice or info about the program? It would be much appreciated thanks!

I went to the info session last week and they said there are so many applications this year that they aren't even looking at applications with less than a 3.0 and for this fall semester that just started, the lowest they accepted had a 3.4.

I think its really tuff to get in right now. Everyone and their brother is applying to nursing school.

I would guess my class had a 3.2-3.5 avg, thats based off talking to people nothing statistacal. The students are pretty damn smart and the program is insanely rigourous and they will show you no mercy if you get below a 74.5 so...

Can anybody share their experience with the RN to BSN program at U.M.? Pros/Cons? How expensive was it? Clinical experiences - I understand the program is completely online except for those, correct?
