Freshman applying to Gordon College

Published

Hey Y'all!!!

I know that I posted a similar post a few months ago about Gordon College, but I am in need of some more information and insight. I am applying now to attend there as a freshman next August. I was wondering who has attended Gordon previously or is attending now? I am really excited to attend, but was wondering what life is like out there? I am going be staying in the dorms with a good friend of mine of school, so I will be spending a lot of time at Gordon and around Barnesville. How are the Professors and dorm life? Are there any places around downtown I should know about?

I am going to be starting off as a Pre-Nursing major so I hope it goes well. Thanks for your help!

My little sister went to Gordon and it was a great experience for her. She lived in the dorms and found things to do with her friends down there around town. Macon is not that far from Barnesville, so I know on some weekends they would hang out there. I think that small schools are a wonderful place to start, especially since you already know that you want to be a nurse. You can stay focused on your goal. I think Gordon is an excellent choice.

Well...I was accepted for the Fall 09 nursing class. I'm new to Gordon as well so I'm sorta kinda in the same boat as you all. However, I've heard nothing but good things about Gordon, especially the Nursing school. :up::twocents:

Well, the school of nursing only allows you to take 2 nursing courses at a time. So I'm taking Pharmacology & Fundamentals of Nursing this fall

I graduated form Gordon last year. There is NOTHING in Barnesville, but the campus is great. They have a pool, great gym, and lots of activities. The nursing instructors are great too, with the exception of only a few. If you can make it through A&P you'll be fine, but keep your GPA up and do your research when signing up for A&P; your choice of professor can make or break you.
