Failed last class to earn BSN -help.

Published

I'm looking for options. I had a second failure in my final semester of BSN at a school in Georgia. Is there an alternative path for someone in my situation? I have passed everything needed to graduate except this one class (med/surg). Any help or suggestions will be appreciated. I am so close, I do not want to stop short. Thanks.

I would try to stay in the school you're at and try and retake the course. The majority of schools have a 'residency' requirement meaning you need to take you're last 25 or so credits there in order to get a degree. If you transfer you can't just redo that course and get a degree you'll need to repeat others as well.

Sorry this happened, but sometimes in life you have to take 4 steps back to go 2 steps forward...call all the states BON to see which one would let you challenge the LPN and then you can reapply back to your college or some other one...good luck.
