I am interested in applying to Wilkes RN-MSN (AGNP). My ASN GPA is severely low because of personal challenges I was facing during the program but I am an exceptional nurse and have the experience and the references and the motivation. How is the program at Wilkes? Are they flexible with the GPA? How do you/did you like the program?

They have a point of contact listed on the website that you could call with questions like those:
School of Nursing - Admissions for Master's Programs - Wilkes University
If they will consider a nurse who graduated from an unaccredited program, they might have some flexibility. If you don't ask, the answer is always no!
But if the answer really IS no, you might consider finding a more "forgiving" BSN program, so you can obtain great grades in the BSN and showcase your ability as a student.
