Nursing Students SRNA
Published May 13, 2007
My overall GPA is 2.7 although my nursing courses GPA is closer to 3.0. What are my chances of getting into a program? Aren't there some that look at more than just overall GPA?

Guestnurse,
Are you a foreign-nurse graduate? This has been the problem of nurses who graduated from abroad. I know a lot of them whose equivalent US GPA is less than 3.0. I, myself has 2.8 US GPA. Modesty aside, I graduated on top 10 of my class, a board topnotcher, and from one of the most prestigious schools. I think it has something to do with the grade-point system abroad. I know of a foreign-nurse whose US GPA is 2.68, GRE is excellent, and graduated with flying colors from TWU.
