GPA for military!?! 😳😥

Published

Hello to all. So I am in the final stretch of nursing school, and I really want to join the Navy. But I don't have a 3.5 to get accepted. Should I give it up or just try anyway? Your input is valued.

As long as you meet the requirements you still have a chance since the GPA is just part of the selection process. Since most services no require 2 years of experience you might want to use that time to retake some of the course which are pulling down you GPA.

From what I have seen all the services require a minimum of 3.0 when applying for the new grad slots. This may not be 100% accurate, but it is what I have come across when looking at the programs they offer to new grads.

They say that no one category will make you or break you. I'm a little worried about the GPA myself seeing that I'm not exactly lighting up the boards. Remember it's your cumulative and not your nursing GPA only.
