I have an overall GPA of 2.25, my program GPA is a 3.15...i got a D in my human anatomy lecture but re-took it with an A. I have yet to take the teas. However the requirements at GPC are....min. 2.0 overall GPA, 2.7 in program GPA 2.7 in biology. However i was previously studying in business administrations so i have around 5 W'S and have failed only one class. What are my chances of getting accepted? Has anyone gotten accepted with similar scores/ similar circumstances?

So once again, overall GPA: 2.25 (2.3 with this upcoming A)

Program GPA: 3.15 (with only one re-taken course )

Bio GPA:3.5 (I'm also not sure if the previous D in A&P will be included in the calculations...)

requirements:

Overall GPA: min. 2.0

Program GPA 2.7

Bio GPA:2.7

Classes usually start at 9. And clinicals are various. 7 to 3. 3 to 11. Depends. Clinicals can be Thursday Friday or sat sun.

What time do you leave campus on regular class days?

Depends on the day. Flexibility is key. As the schedule changes. Especially first semester.

Thanks runsalot! have you graduated from the program already? What is your opinion of gpcs program, I have read a lot of bad reviews on this site and it got me a little worried, but I'm still very excited and can't wait for it to start :)

I am in the middle of it.

And i am loving it. I hated it last semester. Hated it. Cried often.. but then I learned that the most important lesson about NS. That NS is about learning to be a nurse.. and you have to change your way of thinking... Every Nursing program is tough. learn to flexible.. go with the flow. dont stress about the little things. Do the things the instrustors ask you to do. Study lots.

The best thing you can do now is to learn how to take nursing school questions. Get the test for sucess book.. and learn about NS test. NS tests are totally different than anything else you have done.

Thank you! And I have already ordered the book from Amazon. I want to be as prepared as possible. good luck to you in the rest of your program!

Thanks for sharing that info. Ill be applying next year and its nice to hear from students actually in the program :) a friend of mine graduated and currently works in the ER and felt 100% prepared thanks to GPC so I'm confidant we have chosen a good school. Good luck w the rest of the program!!!

I agree. Be flexible, flexible and then be more flexible. They tell you stuff (mandatory) stuff might I add-at the last min. Fact!

Be more specific-

It's hard to be more specific because they change stuff for each semester. I know my cohorts experience was not the same as the year before. They take the feedback and try to make it better. And Keepmovinglpn is in the bridge program so her program is very different too. Be flexible and understand they do have help if you need it. The skills lab and tutorial lab people are great.

Enjoy your pre nursing school days and learn how to take the tests. They test in nclex style questions. Get the book they suggest in the letter.

Hi future nurses!!! I have been accepted in GPC's nursing program, as well! I am very excited and nervous at the same time...I have no idea what to expect. I have a couple questions- can I pay the 105 online?

And for those who are currently in the program- i will be getting married next year on february and it will be on a friday- will the staff be okay with that? anybody has any word of advise? I would greatly appreciate any feedback. Thank you! :) and Congratulations to all!!
