You will get a letter stating the day and time of your critical thinking test... You will have to ask the nursing dept how many groups they have scheduled. They don't give this information in the letter. I applied last semester but obviously didn't get in! I hope I have a better chance this time!!! My GPA went from 2.5 to 3.5 and I will be done with my core after spring sememster!

Krh78 ur core gpa went up to a 3.5? Did u retake sum classes?

No I did not retake classes... My GPA was low because of 2 F's from 14 years ago... I just continued to take my core classes and that eventually brought it up. I totally bombed the critical thinking test last time. I made a 62, I ran out of time and just had to mark answers... Time is your worst enemy on that test, you have 40 questions and 40 minutes. BTW if you retake classes, the nursing dept does NOT take the higher of the two grades they take an average. For example if you made a D and then a B in A&P, the will count that as a C. Also I was not counted as a Gordon student last semester, I think that played a part in the decision. This is my second sememster at Gordon.

Yes once you are accepted you have to "accept" your spot (RSVP) VERY IMPORTANT... If you don't, you are bumped off the list which will free up a spot for the people who got wait listed...
