Columbia State Community College Fall 2017 (students & advice)

Nursing Students School Programs

Published

I applied to Columbia State's RN program today!! I am hoping to get in and to attend the Franklin, Tn campus! I have completed all of the prerequisites and non-nursing classes. I technically could attend a BSN program if it wasn't for my GPA, 2.81. I am wanting to finish the 4 classes for I need for a BSN program so I can apply for a bridge program in the last months of the program. I am going to go to school all summer and if I have to take statistics during the Fall semester. I am super nervous!! I have their point system in front of me and I only have 5 points (bummer). The lady said they have to be super choosy with their program which added to my nervousness. Anyone else apply to the program? Anyone have any advice?

KPeeke...I was thinking the same thing. I figured by Saturday...maybe Monday at the latest.

KPeeke...I would recommend taking the ACT again. Did you know that CSCC has the ACT residual that you can take there? I believe it's around $38 and it keeps you from taking it in a high school setting. Best of luck.

Do you guys mind sharing your GPAs or do you know the average GPA in the class? With the new point system I'm looking at 15 points. My GPA is horrible though bc they consider the cumulative instead of the pre-req so I'm sitting at a 2.8 overall and a 3.6 for the pre req GPA. Do you guys think I have a chance. I'm getting out of the military soon and I want to use my medical training to continue to nursing

ACT 21=5 pts

AP 1=3

AP 2=3

Micro=3

Psy=1
