Hi, I'm trying to get into an ABSN program in the New England area of the United States.
So far I've found St. Joseph's in Standish, Maine and northeastern university in Burlington, Mass. These schools seem to have all year round cohorts and their programs last approximately 15 months.
I got a C in Microbiology and these seem to be the only two colleges that will accept my credits from 2017. The problem is both schools seem to have terrible reviews online. Most schools have a cutoff of a C+. My Microbiology grade is the only pre req that is in the C range.
Does anyone know of any decent ABSN nursing programs in either Maine, Mass, NH, or Vermont?

Man I would retake that Micro class. Did you try googling ABSN programs in MA? What is your first bachelors in? What was your GPA? I know a lot of ABSN programs also have minimum GPAs on the first degree. If you find a program call them and tell them your grades and if you have reached minimums to apply. I wouldn't spend tens of thousands of dollars on a school without proper accreditation. "Good" school won't matter if you are not eligible for acceptance based on grades. Good luck.
