Is it possible?

I was in the ADN program for a year, failed out(by one point:err), and went into the LPN program. I graduated in Dec. and now I currently back in the ADN program and I only have one more year until I graduate! Yay! Anyways, what I was wondering is is there any possible way I could get accepted into a university for ADN to MSN? My GPA is only 2.8 and my transcripts would show that I have failed out of nursing school before. I have always wanted to further my education after my RN, but is it even possible now? Advice or expirences anyone?

    I too missed passing my first go around by 2 points and am now about to start all over in august. I too hope to hear some replies on this subject as my long term goal is MSN or DNP!

    I'm going to respond but I want to put it out there that I'm starting nursing school in the fall. This is purely my opinion and not something I have experienced.

    Have you considered trying to do an RN-to-BSN program first? Taking pre-reqs to be admitted to the BSN will help bring up your GPA and then taking the BSN classes will help raise your GPA.

    I don't think you should ever give up on achieving your goals and furthering your education. There is always a way if you are willing to put in the work.

    Congrats on completing your LPN program and being readmitted to your program! You are already on the right track! :-)

    This is what I was going to suggest. The RN to MSN routes are going to be much more tough to get into, and they really don't save enough time to be heartbroken if you pass them up. Some BSN programs will let you exchange a certain number of BSN classes for classes at the Masters level, which could be virtually the same thing.
