For the Master's Entry program (Clinical Nurse Leader), the GRE is required only for those whose undergraduate GPA is 3.25 or under.
Good for them. Welcome them to the 21st century!

A more scientifically appropriate policy (at least as valid) would be the following:
1. BSN-Ph.D. GRE required, except for every third Tuesday following a quantified ooija board assessment.
2. BSN-MSN: GRE required only if the candidate has not had a qualified palm reading in the last 45 days, exluding those with GPA's between 3.25-3.95. Those with higher than 3.95 are automatically suspect and consequently will need the GRE, unless waived for a Mother's Day exception.
3. Masters Entry: GRE for all, because they wouldn't know the meaning of a Pearson coefficient of r= 0.03 and r=-.05 if it hit 'em in the face.

As per request, thread "stickied" for assistance to people seeking University programs not requiring this for Admission. Hope it helps. Please keep posts here on-topic and helpful. You are welcome to debate the value of GRE requirements for graduate-degree admission programs in another thread.

Thank you.

I think that this could become an amazing resource for those that either bombed the GRE's or are weak in Math....like me

I plan on taking the GRE's to expand my choices, but it's nice to know where you can go if you don't get a good score.

The Univeristy of Iowa, College of Nursing got rid of GRE's a couple of years ago. they found that high scores did not necessarily coorelate with how well a student did.
