    That's exactly what I was going to mention to you was SLU's accelerated program. Compared to the traditional program it will probably be a lot easier to get into. I'm attending SLU next semester to finish up pre-reqs to get into the BSN program and they said ill only need a 3.0 GPA and 1 yr work experience as an LPN. my advice would be to go straight for your BSN or ADN if you are unable to get into the accelerated.
    Oh okay, i currently have a 3.1. Not very high. Got that handful of Cs freshman year. :/ my last 60 hours is a 3.7 but I doubt they'll just look at that. Do you know who I need to contact to talk about my chances of acceptance?

    You should be fine. My understanding is that's what they look at, the last 60 hours.

    Oh wow. That would be amazing. I'm going to see if I can get a meeting down there with someone.

    I'm not sure about requirements for LPN to RN, but for the accelerated program a 3.1 probably wont do it. Shoot for at least 3.5. That is usually the cutoff.

    I don't think this is true--at least for the traditional or accelerated RN programs. It may be true for the LPN to RN bridge program. They will look at ALL pre-requs, including electives.
