You mean besides this:

"Perform satisfactorily on the Pre-Nursing Examination of the National League for Nursing (NLN) as determined by the Board of Trustees' CUNY Formula. (Currently, the NLN Pre-Nursing Examination and the CUNY criteria have been temporarily waived).NOTE: Because of budgetary and space considerations, only a limited number of qualified students are admitted into the Borough of Manhattan Community College's Nursing Program. Students with the higher ranking in both Pre-Clinical Nursing Sequence GPA and overall GPA will be selected for admission into the Clinical Nursing Program. Due to limited seat availability, any Pre-Clinical Nursing student who is eligible to enter the Nursing Program may be required to wait one to three semesters before beginning the Clinical Nursing sequence. However, the college does not guarantee entry into the program.NOTE: Fifteen seats per semester are allocated to students who are sponsored and qualified members of the 1199 SEIU Training and Upgrading Fund.

Hi Mimi,

They are still looking only for the GPA of 4 Preclinical subjects (Eng101, Psy100, AP1 and Mat104) and the overall GPA that includes all other preclinical requirements (Eng201, Dev't Psy/SOC100, AP2, Micro) if they need to break a tie. I just talked to their preclinical advisor and they will start accepting applications for Spring 2011 in late October.
