UVA Nusing - Please PLEASE please RESPOND

I have no clue about getting into those schools, but the programs in Virginia are listed on the Virginia BON website:

The following programs in Virginia have BSN programs:

Eastern Mennonite (Harrisonburg, private)
George Mason (Fairfax, public)
Hampton (Hampton and Virginia Beach, private)
James Madison (Harrisonburg, public)
Jefferson College of Health Sciences (Roanoke, private)
Liberty (Lynchburg, private)
Lynchburg College (Lynchburg, private)
Marymount (Arlington, private)
Norfolk State (Norfolk, public)
Old Dominion (Norfolk, public)
Radford (Radford, public)
Shenandoah (Winchester, private)
UVA at Wise (Wise, public)
Univ of Virginia (Charlottesville, public)
Virginia Commonwealth (Richmond, public)

In addition, two former diploma programs are in the midst of converting to BSN programs. Both intend to enroll their first BSN students in 2010. These two are Sentata College of Health (Virginia Beach) and Bon Secours College of Nursing (Richmond). Both are private schools.

Tranferring into the BSN program at UVa is competitive. Last year we had 100+ applications for 15 or so spaces. The number of spaces varies from year to year -- depending on the number of students we enrolled as First Years decide to transfer out of the school of nursing. Last year the mean GPA for accepted transfers was about a 3.80. Again, this is the mean. There were students with GPAs below that who were accepted and those with higher GPAs who were not accepted. The Admissions Office considers many factors (essays, recommendations, life experiences, etc).
