Getting into the Nursing program!!!!

Published

Specializes in Nurse Technician.

Hello, friends!

I am currently a student at Century College, MN.

I am done with my prerequisite classes this spring semester!

When I applied for the BSN program I had a 3.3 GPA.

Can I still get into the program with a 3.3 GPA?

I am only 19 years old, and I am living with my fiancee.

I have my special circumstances (family problems/history) that makes it hard for me to do well in school because I work about 20-30 hours weekly, I am a full time student, and I take care of my younger siblings, but I still manage to keep a 3.3 GPA.

When I was writing my essays for the nursing application, I included all my special circumstances and information in it. Also, I've been working as a PCA for 2 years now and I am also a different nationality, so maybe that is a bonus to my nursing application?

I applied to Metro State University and the U of M-Twin cities.

I wanted to go into a 4-year degree (BSN).

What are my chances of getting accepted?

I'm really nervous and excited at the same time!

I hope that the admissions don't just look for high grades, but also our skills and experiences and passion for the Nursing industry.

Thank you so much!

Many blessings,

Gao Zoua
