Hello everyone, I received my A.A in nursing a couple months ago and I applied to TROY, UF, FSU, UNF, UCF, WRIGHT STATE UNIVERITY, UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA-RENO, and UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-EAU CLAIRE.
Now my overall GPA is 3.46 and pre-reqs is slightly higher no more than 3.5.
What are my chances for these schools if you know?
Thanks!

a.a in nursing? you mean you just finished an ADN program at a community college right. did you take the nclex and get your license. im assuming you want a bsn right. cause you need to get licensed as an RN then apply for the RN-BSN programs. your post is kind of confusing
from what my dean told me they look at your prereqs as far as your gpa not your nursing school gpa. but yours pretty good im sure you will get in.
a.a in nursing Associates of Arts, not ADN (I wish I was). Its basically a degree in a community college so I can transfer to a BSN program. I dont know if my GPA is high enough. Thanks for the reply

Why not go to a CC and get your ASN, and then transfer into a BSN? Honestly being in my first semester I can see why I think so many should try out the ASn first. A lot of people are having emotional breakdowns, and questioning whether or not they are coming back. Others already plan to drop after this semester.
Also just stay away from for-profit colleges, i.e. Devry, ITT Tech, Phoenix, etc... You pay to much money, when you can go to a public school for much less money and a better education...

I know, but I didnt do the ASN because I did the A.A hoping to transfer into the BSN. I dont think the ASN is an option now. I would have to do 2 years again wouldnt I? I agree 100% with the profit colleges, complete no-no.

I agree, you already have an associates, a bachelors makes more sense for you.
