Hello everyone,
I'm applying to Chamberlain College of Nursing with a 3.25 GPA from my current institution but before transferring to my current school I attended a community college where my GPA is a 2.26. Although my nursing "preqs" total a gpa of 2.94 with 32 hours met. So my question is will Chamberlain only look at those courses related to nursing to base their decision on my acceptance?
Thank you

Hi rodriguezkd. As far as I know, and what my adviser told me, they will take everything into consideration. They will probably look more closely at pre-reqs, I assume. Also, they will look at the Hesi score. Have you applied? What campus are you looking at?

You should talk to an advisor. Which campus are you applying to? I applied to the a Houston campus last night. I have an associates degree in arts and I'm Texas core complete (which means nothing to Chamberlain) and a bachelors in psychology. They looked over my transcripts and are taking all my prerequ's all sciences, but also English, math, history, then my previous degree is a science degree so it required statistics and some of the same classes Chamberlains program require so they said if I was accepted, they'd take those too. 56 of my credits would transfer in if I get accepted. I know when looking at my transcripts, they counted everything that was required for the nursing program just like any other school would.
