I am in the last semester right now, but I didn't do the 1st year because I did the LPN bridge program so I don't really know for sure where the fundamental and maternity/pedi students have clinical, although I do know some students go to W & I in Providence for maternity. I believe most of the 1st year students were at St. Anne's & St. Lukes, and I thought I remember someone telling me they went to NB rehab for fundamentals. For the 2nd year, med surg, the 3 hospitals are Sturdy in Attleboro, St. Anne's in FR & St. Lukes in NB. For the psych rotations it's SSTAR in FR, Rogers unit in St. Lukes & Arbour Fuller in South Attleboro. Psych is rotated into med surg for 4 weeks each semester, & you have 8 weeks of med surg clinical each semester. I hope this helps a little! Good luck!
I don't really know what the lowest GPA was, mine was a 4.0 and I had an A+ in A&P I & II & Micro, which I had heard they look at the sciences with more weight. I would say anything above a 3.5 because they get so many applicants they can be pretty picky. I know they look at the TEAS scores too though. Good luck, my fingers are crossed for you!!

I'm starting BCCs nursing program hopefully next fall and I've been trying to find out where they hold their clinicals because I don't have a car and id like to know what to expect but everywhere I look it just says "locations in southeastern ma n ri"... if anyone has gone there and knows where they have them please let know! Someone warned me that the program is very strict and they don't care if you don't have transportation... I'm so nervous so being prepared and having a rough idea would help me a lot! Thanks guys! =)
