Hi, I've been trying to move to OR and am applying to nursing schools. However I have a previous degree (in psychology) and have a GPA of about 2.65, all the schools I've been looking at have a minimum GPA of 3.0, and I know the competitive GPA is closer to 3.75. What do I do? What schools can I apply to? Which colleges will allow me the time to get my grades up for at least the prerequisite programs? How do I go about applying to those schools?My previous GPA has a lot more to do with my immaturity at the time, and less to do with my actual academic abilitiesAny information would be much appreciated! Thanks! 0 Likes
