GPA requirements

[trigirl2010]

Hi -

As I consider switching careers, I notice many of the accelerated programs require your previous bachelor's GPA be 3.0 or better - I graduated with a 2.96 (something like that). Does this automatically cut me out consideration? What if I get A's in my prerequisites (which I need to take)?

Thanks for any advice.

Your best bet would be to call and ask because each school is different.

Good luck!
