Hello everyone,
I am creating this forum so other pre-nursing students can gather and share helpful information regarding the application process, specifically for GWC's Fall 2022 entry. Some information I received by (staff removed name) (GWC counselor) today is that GWC's nursing program will accept the highest science grade regardless of repeats/remediation. I was worried because I took Anatomy, Physiology, and Microbiology all the way back in 2012-2013 when I was first starting college, and I failed a few times ? thankfully, previous failing grades will not impact your eligibility in receiving the highest points in the multi-criteria (just get those A's ?).
Additionally, she informed me that if science grades are older than the recency requirement (e.g. GWC has a 7 year recency), then schools will not consider these past grades (even if you failed, like in my case) in the application process.
This was a HUGE sigh of relief and hopefully it eases anyone else who might be in a similar situation.
p.s. (staff removed name) was referred to me by one of GWC's nursing professors. She did inform me that in the past, GWC used to average the science grades, but this is currently NOT the case (hopefully they don't change anything in the upcoming months).
Best of luck to anyone applying this cycle! ?

They definitely send out rejection letters. They sent me rejection emails the first 2 times I applied. I would be very suprised if they sent out confirm letters before June. Between the sheer number of applications, finals week, and graduation, they are a bit busy ?. Usual turn around for most semesters is 6 -10 weeks, so hopefully they let you all know by June.

Congratulations on your acceptances, that’s so exciting! Can I ask how many points you had with Golden West?

Congrats on getting in!
Hopefully, I can be able to get your spot! I was accepted as an alternate and am hoping to still get in!
@Kenji12345 I am currently #5 on the alternate list, how do you suppose my chances are getting in?

@HopelessNurse By any chance, would you mind sharing how many points you applied with?

Congratulations!
I got accepted as well and applied with 82 points. I will be accepting my spot too, but I'm sure there are others who will decline their spot, giving people on the alternate list a chance! Good luck to everyone!
