I think its absolutely possible!!!
Just remember the saying, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again! But you may just make it the first time around too:) I had a 3.0 when I applied to nursing school and was accepted. I had a C too ( though I would highly recommend working your best to get As especially in the sciences) but remember: there are MANY factors to your nursing application, including:
-your essay
-your interview ( if applicable)
-extracurriculars
-job experience
-volunteer work
-healthcare work
-general admissions (i.e is your resume neat, was everything on time, did you attend an open house)
Good luck!

My GPA is a 3.0, and I am looking to get accepted into the nursing program.
I still have A&P 1 and 2, MicroBio, Statistics, Psychology , Philosophy, Econ/Sociology, Nutrition, & Human Growth and Development to to fulfill. I've done the calculations and even if I get an A in all those course the best I slide away with is a 3.3.
Was wondering that if I dont make it the first time, is re-applying the following year or semester afterwards possible?
and in the meantime of doing so, would re-taking some of my courses and getting better grades be beneficial?
Thanks
