Rejected into MTSU School of Nursing for Fall 2011

[fasasha]

i just got my letter this morning. Honestly, i was a bit sad but i was not beating myself up on it. I don't have the opportunity of just schooling so i had to work and go to school as well. i have a GPA of 3.1 and i'm currently taking elective classes to while away time till i get accepted. i took a&P 2 in the summer and due to its intensity came out with a c+, i needed that before taking microbiology the next semester so i had to. i am thinking that is the reason why i was rejected because my interview went well. i refuse to give up and will continue to better myself or my grades. i meet with my advisor soon to find out if i need to take anymore courses during fall or just take a semester off. MTSU is very hard to get in and i understand this but at the same time i've never been the one to give up on anything in life so i will continue to strive till i reach my goals. I am putting this up because i hardly see any MTSU pre req nurses or nursing students on here so i decided to do this and its very therapeutic as well :).

MTSU is eliminating the interview as well as credit for prior professional experience as a part of the admission process to the nursing program. Also, even though there are minimum GPA requirements, the average GPA is extremely high for those accepted, due to the competitiveness and quality of the MTSU nursing program. Just because a person meets the minimum requirements does not assure acceptance into the program.
