Chamberlain questions

Nursing Students Chamberlain College

Published

Would you guys be able to list the city that is very competitive than the others when it comes to chamberlain?? I am just really doubting myself and seeing people who have better gpa and hesi exam scores than me still didn’t get accepted but it was for the most competitive ones. I’m just curious about the st. Louis location the most?

I am the Chamberlain in Arlington, VA and they are moderately competitive. In 2015/2016, they did not accept me because my GPA was lower than their requirement. They didn't even let me take the HESI. I buckled down took some nursing prerequisites at my community college and I was accepted in 2017. Now, I graduate in about 10 months!!! There is always hope!

I hope this encourages you!

Hi There!

I just came across your post. I just want to encourage you to not compare yourself or pay too much attention to what the next students acceptance into the program is dependent on. I myself struggled in school extremely bad. When I say extreme, I mean straight F's throughout high school along with a few F's going into college. I had undiagnosed learning disabilities and it was a complete game changer once I found out what was going on; even though I was already 26 by that time. Still, if you were to look at my transcripts vs probably all of the other students, it would not make any sense how or why I was chosen over other students.

I was accepted into the Sac campus and I start this September. My scores were barely creeping over the pass line (which for Sacramento is 80 I think. I know it's higher in Sacramento than the other schools. My GPA was like 3.40.

Just remember if you are meant to be somewhere, it will happen. Try your hardest, keep your options open, don't back down out of fear or intimidation because I almost did after attending the info session. I didn't think I had a chance but my husband encouraged me and I knew in my heart I was going to be accepted where I was meant to be; and it happened.

You got this girl!!!
