Has anyone been accepted into NYC ABSN program with a lower than average GPA? Chances of getting in with 3.0?

Published

I have a 3.0 GPA (I messed around in college) and a 3.82 prereq GPA. I'm really nervous I won't get into any of the ABSN programs I apply to in NYC/surrounding area. My top choices are NYU, Pace, and Columbia but I'll be applying everywhere within the area. My partner needs to move for his job in the Spring which is why my preference is NYC.

You will definitely get into an ABSN with that pre-req GPA. Why are you nervous? Community colleges are more competitive than ABSNs because CC are cheaper.

I agree with previous comment. All schools you apply to are expensive, so less competitive. Not saying it's easy, but it will be easier to enter in comparison to a CUNY or SUNY school.
